[Intro]
Bm


[Verse]
     Bm
On a long and lonesome highway
Bm
east of Omaha
  A
You can listen to the engine,
  A
moaning out his one note song
  E
You can think about the woman,
E                             Bm      Bm
or the girl you knew the night before
         Bm
And your thoughts will soon be wandering
    Bm
the way they always do
            A
When you're riding sixteen hours
            A
and there's nothing much to do
    E
You don't feel much like riding',
         E                          Bm    Bm
you just wish the trip was through


[Chorus]
       A          Bm
Here I am, on the road again
       A      Bm
Here I am, up on the stage
       A            E
Here I go, playing star again
        G  A         Bm
There I go, turn the page


[Verse]
       Bm
So you walk into a restaurant,
Bm
strung out from the road
        A
And you feel the eyes upon you,
          A
as you're shaking off the cold
    E
You pretend it doesn't bother you,
        E                   Bm    Bm
but you just want to explode
     Bm                         Bm
Most times you can here 'em talk,

other times you can't
        A
All the same 'old cliches:
          A
is that a woman? is a man?
        E
And you always seem outnumbered,
    E                          Bm    Bm
you don’t dare make a stand


[Chorus]
       A          Bm
Here I am, on the road again
       A      Bm
Here I am, up on the stage
       A            E
Here I go, playing star again
        G  A         Bm
There I go, turn the page


[Verse]
Bm
Out there in the spotlight,
         Bm
you’re a million miles away
      A
Every ounce of energy,
    A
you try to give away
       E
As the sweat pours out your body,
         E                   Bm   Bm
like the music that you play


[Bridge]
  Bm~                            Bm~
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed
           A~
With the echoes of the amplifiers,
  A~
ringing in your head
  E~
You smoke the day’s last cigarette,
  E~                         Bm~   Bm
remembering what she said


[Solo]
A  Bm  3x
G  A  Bm
A  Bm  3x
G  A  Bm


[Chorus]
       A          Bm
Here I am, on the road again
       A      Bm
Here I am, up on the stage
       A           E
Here I go, playing star again
        G  A         Bm
There I go, turn the page
        G  A         Bm
There I go, turn the page
        G         A          Bm      Bm
There I go oh yeah, there I go yeah
A  Bm        A Bm       A    Bm
     There I go, Here I go
        G     A          Bm~
There I go ohhh, here I go...
