D                             Dsus4                  G Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels       D              Dsus4        G And a good saloon in every single town Oh and I remember something you once told me And I’ll be damned if it did not come true Twenty thousand roads I went down down down And they all lead me straight back home to you. So I headed west to grow up with the country Out across those praries with those waves of grain And I saw my devil and I saw my deep blue sea And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee. Hey we flew straight across that river bridge Last night at half past two The switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good luck As we went rolling through. D                         Dsus4                G Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel And now I know just what I have to do   The man on the radio won’t leave me alone He wants to take my money for something that I’ve never been shown And I saw my devil and I saw my deep blue sea And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee. --- Instrumental --- D Dsus4 G The news I could bring I met up with the king On his head an amphetamine crown He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt And lit out for some desert town. D                             Dsus4                  G Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels       D              Dsus4        G And a good saloon in every single town Oh and I remember something you once told me And I’ll be damned if it did not come true Twenty thousand roads I went down down down And they all lead me straight back home to you. Twenty thousand roads I went down down down And they all lead me straight back home to you.
