Chorus 
                G                   
I got the radio blastin' I got the windows roll down 
                       D                             G      D 
and I'm cruisin' these backroads on the outskirts of town 
                          G                
and I can feel the wind a blowin' hear the big engines wind 
                        D                                G 
when I'm cruisin' these backroads all my troubles are behind 

Turnaround G D G 

1. 
          D                             G 
Well when I woke up this mornin' well I took me a look outsid 
       D                                              G 
it was plain to see it was one of those days that are made for takin' a ride 
     C                                  G 
so I went downstairs clear my head with coffee and cigarettes 
         D                                      G 
and when it hit me right there then my mind was set 

2. 
       D                                        G     
Well I phoned  work and told them they're gonna be a man short today 
          D                                                   G 
I got the Sunday day blues there's only one thing thats gonna make them go away 
     C                              G 
so I went out and I climbed into my big ole Chevrolet 
             C                                         D 
and with the turn of the key and a cloud of dust I was on my way

3. 
       D                                 G 
Well may'be I did and may'be I didn't go lose my job today 
        D                                     G 
but you can take my cares take my worries and blow them all away 
           C                                          G 
well there comes a time in every man's life when he's got to break free 
       C                                        G 
I got four good wheels and an endless road just out in front of me
