Chords in this song4
Verse 1
On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moaning out its one note song
And you think about the woman or the girl the night before
Verse 2
But your thoughts will soon be wondering the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through
Chorus
Here I am on the road again,
There I am up on the stage
Here I go, playin' the star again
There I go, turn the page
Verse 3
Well you walk into a restaurant strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode
Verse 4
Most times you can hear them talkin', other times you can't
All the same old cliches, is that a woman or a man
and you always seem outnumbered so you don't dare make a stand
Chorus
Here I am on the road again,
There I am up on the stage
Here I go, playin' the star again
There I go, turn the page
Verse 5
Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
as the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
Verse 6
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
Echoes from the amplifiers ringing in your head
And you smoke the day's last cigarette remembering what you said
Chorus
Here I am on the road again,
There I am up on the stage
Here I go, playin' the star again
There I go, turn the page
Here I am on the road again,
There I am up on the stage
Here I go, playin' the star again
There I go, turn the page
