D/A A

[Verse 1]
D/A A          A
     Got those highway blues,
can't you hear my motor runnin'
D/A                          A
Flyin' down the road with my foot on the floor
All the way in town they can hear me comin'
D/A
Ford's about to drop,
          A
she won't do no more

[Pre-Chorus]
F
 And I smell my motor burnin'
  F7/A
Underneath the hood is smoke
E
Can't stop, and I can't stop
G
Got to keep on movin' or I'll lose my mind

[Chorus]
A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
Oh, rockin' down the highway
D/A A A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
      Oh, rockin' down the highway
D/A A A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
      Oh, rockin' down the highway
D/A A A       Gadd9/A      D/A A  D/A A
      Oh, rockin' down the highway

[Verse 2]
A    A
 The highway patrol got his eyes on me
  D/A                           A
I know what he's thinkin' and it ain't good
I'm movin' so fast he can barely see me
D/A                        A
Gonna lose that man, I know I should

[Pre-Chorus]
F
 I gotta kick in my pedal
        F7/A
Make my Ford move a little bit faster
E
Can't stop, and I can't stop
G
Got to keep on movin' or I'll lose my mind

[Chorus]
A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
Oh, rockin' down the highway
D/A A A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
      Oh, rockin' down the highway
    D/A         A
Good   Lord, man
A       Gadd9/A      D/A A
Oh, rockin' down the highway
D/A A A       Gadd9/A      D/A A  D/A A
      Oh, rockin' down the highway
