Til The Goin Gets Gone

G G

[Verse 1]
G                          
Oh, the wheels, they keep on 
                     Bm
spinnin', I ain't gettin' anywhere
C                           
It's been drivin' me into the 
               C
ground, gonna bury my bones there
G                                 
And I hope someday they find me, 
        Bm
see that I was on my way
       C
When I lay down by the side of the 
road where I made my grave


[Chorus]
      Am                           
Oh, I gotta keep goin', gotta keep 
      Em
goin' on
         Am                        
From the dead of night to the break
              Em
 of the early dawn
         Am                        
Yeah, I gotta keep goin', gotta 
        Em
keep goin' on
         Am                        
Keep on goin, little darlin', 'til 
               G
the goin' gets gone

[Verse 2]
           G                
I've been chasin', I've been 
                  Bm
runnin', gettin' lost and gettin' 
found
           C
I've been sinkin', I've been 
swimmin' and one time I nearly 
drowned
         G                       
All the rundown dirty motels, all 
      Bm
the cities and small towns
           C
Leave 'em in rearview mirror while 
the wheels keep spinnin' 'round


[Chorus]
           Am                   
'Cause I gotta keep goin', gotta 
            Em
keep goin' on
           Am                      
From the dead of night to the break
               Em
 of the early dawn
          Am                       
Yeah, I gotta keep goin', gotta 
         Em
keep goin' on
          Am                       
Keep on goin', little darlin', 'til
                G
 the goin' gets gone

[Verse 3]
        G                          
Well, I guess I'm getting older and
      Bm
 I prob'ly should slow down
          C
Take the exit off the freeway and 
head on homeward bound
       G                         
But I know it won't be long until 
      Bm
the road beckons me back
         C
And you see me on The '66 in a 
vintage Cadillac


[Chorus]
       Am                          
Oh, I gotta keep goin', gotta keep 
      Em
goin' on
          Am                       
From the dead of night to the break
               Em
 of the early dawn
        Am                         
Yeah, I gotta keep goin', gotta 
        Em
keep goin' on
         Am                        
Keep on goin', little darlin', 'til
                G
 the goin' gets gone
         Am                        
Keep on goin', little darlin', 'til
                G
 the goin' gets gone
         Am                        
Keep on goin', little darlin', 'til
                G
 the goin' gets gone
