E A Am A Am

[Verse 1]
       Am
I rode sixteen wheels all the way

Sixteen nights and lonely days
          Dm                    Am
I'm going back, I wish I never came
    Em              Dm                   Am
I'm going someplace where they never say your name

[Verse 2]
Am
You kept me up all night with your coke and gin

Left me next morning and turned me in
           Dm                   Am
And that's evil, baby you're no good
         Em         Dm        Am
Well I'd forget you baby if I could

[Verse 3]
Am
Well you show me the well but you don't let me drink

You threw my heart right in just to watch it sink
            Dm                                      Am
And it went down, it went down, it went all the way down
        Em               Dm                Am
And I'm going there too, over the edge and drown

[Verse 4]
Am
I'm gonna lay my head on some railroad line

Last thing I'll hear is that engine cry
          Dm                   Am
I'm going back, I wish I never came
    Em              Dm                        Am
I'm going someplace where they never say your name
          Em              Dm                        Am
Yeah, I'm going someplace where they never say your name.
