Tuning:

^AmDiesel powers ^C18 wheels to rolling As ^D7I pull it on to the Inter^Amstate

I've got 13 hours to ^Cmake my destination And ^D7I don't want to stop to check my ^E7weight

^FThere won't be no ^G7sleep for me to^Amnight ^G7no I've ^Fgot to be hitting Tulsa by ^E7first morning light

I'm a ^Amprisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Driven on by my restless ^Amsoul

Call me a prisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Prison by the freedom of the ^Amroad

I've run freight out of ^CWheeling West Virginia ^D7And US Steel from ^AmMemphis

I've rolled tobacco ^Cout of the Carolina's ^D7California wines into Birming^E7ham

^FSome people work just ^G7to sur^Amvive yeah ^FBut up here in this cab that's ^E7when I'm most alive

I'm a ^Amprisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Driven on by my restless ^Amsoul

Call me a prisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Prison by the freedom of the ^Amroad

^D7Got a wife living back in Tennessee And she tries to understand the way I ^Amfeel

^D7I could give my hands to another line of work But my ^Fheart would always be behind the ^E7wheel

Call me a ^Amprisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Driven on by my restless ^Amsoul

I'm a prisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Prison by the freedom of the ^Amroad

Don't you know I'm a prisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Driven on by my restless ^Amsoul

Call me a prisoner of the ^G7highway ^D7Prison by the freedom of the ^Amroad
