This is a great song. Ê /************** TURN THE PAGE ***************/
by Waylon Jennings
Ê Em/ Em/ÊÊÊÊÊ
On a long and lonesome highway,east of OMAHA
D/ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ D/
You can listen to the engine moaning out it's one note song
A/ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ A/ÊÊ Ê Em
And you think about the MORNING or the girl the night before
Verse 2:
Ê Em/ ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ Em/
But your thoughts will soon be wondering the ways they always do
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ D/ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ D/
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ A/ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ A/ ÊÊÊ Em
And you don't feel much like ridin'Ê you just wish the trip was true
Chorus:
D ÊÊÊÊ Em
Here I am on the road again,
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ D ÊÊÊÊ Em
There I am one more stage
DÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ AÊ
Here I go,playin' star again
D ÊÊÊÊ Em
there I go turn the page
Verse 3:
ÊÊÊ Em
Well you're walkin' to a restaurant strung out from the cold
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ DÊÊ
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're chakin' off the coat
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ A ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ ÊÊÊÊÊ Em
You pretend it doesn't bother you WHAT YOU JUST GOING TO EXPLORE
Verse4:
ÊÊÊÊ Em
Most times you can T hear them talkin',OF THE TIMES YOU CAN
D
It's the same old CLICHE is THAT a woman or a man
Ê A Em
and you always SEEMS OUTNUMBERED so you don't dare MAKE A STAND
Chorus
Verse 5:
Ê Em
OUT there in the spot lights you're a million miles away
D
Every OUNSE of energy you try to give away
Ê A ÊÊÊÊ Em
as the SWEAT POURS from your body like the music that you play
Verse 6:
Em/
Later in the evening as you lie awake IN bed
D/
Echoes from the AFTERFIRE S ringing in your head
ÊÊ A/ Em
And you smoke the day's last cigarette remembering what SHE said
Chorus 2 times.
