Big Wheels In The Moonlight

Intro - G  picking top 3 strings


G
I came from a town that was so small
                              D       G
You look both ways, you could see it all

All I wanted was some way out - Every evening I'd slip into town
       C                        G
And stand around by the caution light
              D                  G
And watch the big trucks rolling by
    C                     G       D                    G
For me it was a beautiful sight - Big wheels in the moonlight


  G                                                 D      G
I had a case of wanderlust  I'd lie awake with the windows up Out on Highway Fifty Nine

I could hear some big old diesel whine
        C                      G
She was going through all the gears
           D                 G
And headed out to who knows where
         C                G
I fell asleep 'most every night
               D                   G
Dreaming about big wheels in the moonlight


      C               G               D
And I want to put my life on the centerline
       C               G              D
And I want to see the world before I die
      Em                   G                C  Cadd9  C  Cadd9  C  (quick)
And I know that there's a peace I'll never find
            G                    D                  G   F  C  G
Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind


 G                                                  D     G
How I got here, its hard to say, so many things got in my way

Can't complain about all I've got - Kids and a wife and a regular job
        C                     G           D                      G
But at night when I'm sitting here - All alone in a living room chair
     C                G             D                   G
Sometimes I close my eyes - And see big wheels in the moonlight


       C              G              D
And I want to put my life on the centerline
       C               G             D
And I want to see the world before I die
      Em                   G                C  Cadd9  C  Cadd9  C  (quick)
And I know that there's a peace I'll never find
             G                    D                 G  F  C  G
Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind
