The Byrds Truck Stop Girl written by Lowell George/Bill Payne
Record in key of Ab
C G C G
His tail lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop
C Em D
The same old crowd was hanging out again tonight
C G Am Bm C D
He said fill up my tank while I go check my load
C G
It feels like it's shifting all around
C G G/F# Em C G D
He was the kind of man to do all he could above all he had integrity
C D C G D C
G
But he was so young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop
girl
C G C G
As he went inside he was merrily greeted
C Em D
By the girl with whom he was in love
C G Am Bm C D
She held out a glass and said have another
C G^?
This is the last time we can meet
C G G/F# Em
With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye
C G D
That would turn any good man's blood to wine
C D C G
All his eyes could see all his eyes could see
D C G
Were the stares from all those around him
G/F# Em C G
He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig
C G
And drive off without tightening down
C G G/F# Em
It was a terrible thing to see what remained
C G D
Of that rig that poor Danny was in
C D C G D C G
He was young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop girl
