[Verse 1]
G G Em
Standing on the roadside, head held in my hands
Em C
Rain falls hard on the ground 'round where I stand
G D
Headlights shinin' about half a mile away
[Chorus]
D Em G
It's been a long and lonesome day, it's been a long and lonesome day
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G G Em
Cars on the highway, they're dark against the sky
Em C
And they're never going my way, they only pass me by
G D
Tomorrow's such a long time to go from yesterday
[Chorus]
D Em G
It's been a long and lonesome day, it's been a long and lonesome day
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
G G Em
Waitin' on a hillside, here I am again
Em C
I'd love to catch a ride, stick my thumb out in the wind
G D
Shouldn't look behind me, 'cause it don't ever pay
[Chorus]
D Em G
It's been a long and lonesome day, yeah it's been a long and lonesome day
[Solo]

It's been a long and lonesome day, yeah it's been a long and lonesome day
