Flying Burrito Brothers Six Days On The Road by Earl Green

Carl Montgomery

B F# B

Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down that Eastern seaboard

F#

I got my diesel wound up & she's arunning like never before

E F#

There's a speed zone ahead on the right and

B E

I don't see a cop in sight

B F# B

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight

B F# B

I got ten forward gears and a George Overdrive

B F#

I'm takin' little white pills & my eyes are opened wide

E F#

I just passed a Jimmy and White

B E

I been passing everything in sight

B F# B

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight

SOLO

B F# B

The ICC is checkin on down the line

B F#

Well I'm a little overweight but my law books way behind

E F#

But nothing bothers me tonight

B E

I'm gonna dodge all the scales allright

B F# B

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight

B F# B

Well it beens six weels since I kissed my baby goodbye

F#

I could have a lotta women but I'm not alike some other guys

E F#

I could find me one to hold me tight

B E

But I could never make believe it's allright

B F# B

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight

SOLO

B F# B

My rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow

There's a good flame blowing from her smoke stack

F#

black as coal

E F#

Well my home town's comming in sight

B E

And if you think I'm happy you're right

B F# B

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight
