Intro
G#
I came from a town that was so small
D# G#
You look both ways, you could see it all
All I wanted was some way out - Every evening I'd slip into town
C# G#
And stand around by the caution light
D# G#
And watch the big trucks rolling by
C# G# D# G#
For me it was a beautiful sight - Big wheels in the moonlight
G# D# G#
I had a case of wanderlust I'd lie awake with the windows up Out on Highway Fifty Nine
I could hear some big old diesel whine
C# G#
She was going through all the gears
D# G#
And headed out to who knows where
C# G#
I fell asleep 'most every night
D# G#
Dreaming about big wheels in the moonlight
C# G# D#
And I want to put my life on the centerline
C# G# D#
And I want to see the world before I die
Fm G# C# C#add9 C# Cadd9 C (quick)
And I know that there's a peace I'll never find
G# D# G# F# C# G#
Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind
G# D# G#
How I got here, its hard to say, so many things got in my way
Can't complain about all I've got - Kids and a wife and a regular job
C# G# D# G#
But at night when I'm sitting here - All alone in a living room chair
C# G# D# G#
Sometimes I close my eyes - And see big wheels in the moonlight
C# G# D#
And I want to put my life on the centerline
C# G# D#
And I want to see the world before I die
Fm G# C# C#add9 C# Cadd9 C (quick)
And I know that there's a peace I'll never find
G# D# G# F# C# G#
Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind
