[Verse 1]
       C                                               | C7 | % |
It's a long lonely highway when you're travellin' all alone
           F                                               | C7 | % |
And it's a mean old world when you got no one to call your own
        E                                           Am       F
And you pass through towns too small to even have a name, oh yes
              C              Am
But you gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere
      C                     Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no one to care

          C  F               | C | C7 |
Just keep mo-ovin' down the line

[Verse 2]
       C                                     | C7 | % |
It's a long lonely highway without her by my side
           F                                          | C7 | % |
And it's a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried
   E                                      Am       F
My heart's so heavy it's a low-down dirty shame oh yes
              C              Am
But you gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere
      C                     Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no one to care
          C  F               | C | C7 |
Just keep mo-ovin' down the line

[Middle 8]
        F
I got a rock for my pillow 'neath a weeping willow
        C
And the cool grass for my bed
   F
My drinking water's muddy so don't you tell me, buddy
       D7                     G
That I wouldn't be better off dead

[Verse 3]
       C                                           | C7 | % |
It's a long lonely highway gettin' longer all the time
       F                                                  | C7 | % |
And if she don't come and get me, well, I'm gonna lose my mind
           E                                       Am       F
So, if you read about me tell her she's the one to blame, oh yes
          C              Am
You gotta keep on goin', on that road to nowhere
      C                     Am
Gotta keep on goin', though there's no one to care
          C  F              C
Just keep mo-ovin' down the line
