[Verse 1]
G               Dm                       F                     G            Dm
 And as I went aboard the train, I said "Don't hang on, 'cause I'll be gone too long"
G                Dm                F                 G           Dm
 And there in my head again, oh, I dreamed a life of women, wine and song
        F          G           C         F                 Dm    G              Dm
But the fame I had planned for overnight slipped from sight, and left me in the void
F           G      C           F        Dm F              G               Dm
 And on the chill October dawn I'm alone,  on the highway thumbin' my way home

Dm G


[Chorus]
G                              C
Rocky mountain home, I said "I left you for the ro-ro-ro-ro-road"
                            G                 D                        C
And should I come back this winter, would you be there, would you have me there
G                            C
Rocky mountain home, so many night I spent alo-lo-lo-lo-lone
                           G                  D                       C
With the thought of you in my mind, I've been unkind, I've said words unkind
      G                                 C
Well, rocky mountain home, now that old highway is all I call my home
                            G                D                 C
Well, please don't leave me stranded, here I stand, my head in my hands

[Chorus]
G                              C
Rocky mountain home, I said "I left you for the ro-ro-ro-ro-road"
                          G                D                  C
And please don't leave me stranded, here I stand, I've got my head in my hands


[Outro]
         G                A               C            G
Hey, hey driver, hey pull over, won't you let me get inside

Hey, hey driver, hey pull over, won't you let me get inside
G                           A                    C                G
 Hey, hey driver, won't you slow down, won't you give me one more ride
G
 Hey, hey driver...
