Verse 

Am                                         Em 
Used to have a town but the factory moved away   
Am                                            Em 
Down to Mexico where they work for hardly any pay   
Am                                               Em 
Used to have a country but they sold it down the river   
          D                                          Em 
Like a repossessed farm auctioned off to the highest bidder   


        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on 
        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on 

Verse 

       Am                                                     Em 
Wave a flag, wave the bible, wave your sex or your business degree 
Am                                               Em  
Whatever you want -- but don't wave that thing at me 
    Am                                 Em  
The tide of love can leave your prizes scattered 
             D                                          Em  
But when you get to the bottom it's the only thing that matters 
  

        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on 
        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on 

Verse 

      Am                                            Em 
I believe it's a sin to try and make things last forever 
     Am                                              Em  
Everything that exists in time runs out of time some day 
Am                                        Em  
Got to let go of the things that keep you tethered 
D                                              Em  
Take your place with grace and then be on your way  


        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on 
        G                                Em     D               Em  
        Mighty trucks of midnight moving on...       ....Moving on
