   D 
1.I'd rather be home,  
                           G               D 
But I make my livin' on the go 
 
Big silver eagle spreads her wings 
           E                               A 
And drops us at another show 
    D 
I think about holdin' my baby tonight 
          G                                   D 
As I listen to the big wheels roll 
 
Three days into a six-week tour,  
 G                       A                  D 
Getting in the rhythm of the road 
 
2.We pick and sing,  
Say "goodnight" then we'll be flyin' 
My world's a chain of one-night-stands  
Strung together by the center line 
I don't know where I'll wake up tomorrow,  
But I can't let the tempo slow 
Every town is just another beat,  
livin' in the rhythm of the road 
 
  G 
The rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own 
 
If you find it it'll drive you insane 
         D 
Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track 
                                               D7 
I'm rattlin' like an old freight train 
  G               
Towns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' "hi" 
 
They all start to look the same 
            E 
Gotta stop for a minute, be glad I'm in it 
   A 
Remember just why I came 
 
(Instrumental) 
 
3.Those highway signs, Lord, they keep me on the move 
I think about givin' it up sometimes,  
And gettin' in a diff'ren groove 
But I just let the days slide by,  
Get goin' with the flow 
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,  
livin' in the rhythm of the road 
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,  
livin' in the rhythm of the road 
Livin' in the rhythm of the road
