Verse:  
N.C. 
Take the road to Tonganoxie, just before Sun Catcher Lake 

Go past the cemetery oh child please donâ??t make me wait 
               C                    G 
Cause thereâ??s something wrong with what Iâ??ve done 
                    D 
I havenâ??t got much time 
                      C           G               D 
I canâ??t stay here in Kansas Iâ??ve gotta cross the line 



     D                      C            G          Bb 
So, take me down to the Missouri on the way to Arkansas 
     C                         D             
The devilâ??s in a hurry to see what my mamma saw 
D               C               G             Bb 
Now Iâ??m on the run Iâ??ve got no other place to go 
        C                 D     Dm7     
Except down the stranger road 


Verse: 
N.C.                                     
I walked straight out the back door I covered up my tracks 
                                                    Dm7 
My poppa thinks itâ??s criminal so I ainâ??t coming back 
               C                    G 
Cause thereâ??s something wrong with what Iâ??ve done 
                    D   
I havenâ??t got much time 
                     C               
And what I want and what I need 
    G             D 
Is all I have in mind 



     D                      C            G          Bb 
So, take me down to the Missouri on the way to Arkansas

The devilâ??s in a hurry to see what my mamma saw

Now Iâ??m on the run Iâ??ve got no other place to go 
        C                 D          
Except down the stranger road
