[Verse]
D
And darlin' I still hear your name
            Em
Through the windshield wipers in the drivin' rain
        G                                  D
I'll be crossed the rocky mountains in the mornin'
D
and it's one too many lonely nights
         Em
When the highway comes to be a way of life
      G                                          D
Seems like about the time I'm gettin' there, I'm goin'

[Chorus]
                    D                          Em
Hear that Peterbilt whine down the solid white line
              G                                 A
Don't make no money if I don’t make it there on time
A                D                                Em
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
         G                                    D
I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms

[Verse]
D
But if I know that you'll be waitin' there
         Em
Then you know that's a weight girl that I can bear
      G                                       D
I can see your face in the headlights' lonely glare
D
With the big ol' moon steady on the rise
        Em
and the hammer down across the great divide
        G                                     D
I'll be pushin' through till I'm back where I belong

[Chorus]
                    D                          Em
Hear that Peterbilt whine down the solid white line
              G                                 A
Don't make no money if I don't make it there on time
A                D                                Em
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
         G                                    D
I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms

[Bridge]
Bm           A             G
To watch the sunset on the west Arizona sky
Bm          A              G            A
To feel the cool wind on a cold El Paso night

[Chorus]
                    D                          Em
Hear that Peterbilt whine down the solid white line
              G                                 A
Don't make no money if I don't make it there on time
A                D                                Em
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
             G                                    D
and I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms
