King of the Highway

by Truckstop Darlin’

Standard Tuning
Capo 5th fret

G	
There’s a coal minin’ town

Where the sun never sleeps
Em
It’s cold in Alaska

Her tears freeze to her cheeks
	               C
And there’s an old man that loves her
			                G
He’s comin’ home, life or death.

G
Two months drug by

Since the day he first left
Em
He can still hear goodbye

He can still see her breath
           C
In that cracked sideview mirror
			                 G
That he swore he’d fix last time

G
Thirty miles from home

Dogs bark and red lights flash
Em
I love Marie, still tattooed on the dash
            C
Of that jackknifed freightliner,
	               G
Phone rings, 2 AM


Chorus

D	           C				                  G
Hail to you, you’re the king of the highway now  x 2







G
That frozen hell it took him

And he ain’t coming back
Em
But her memory’s still thick

Like this ice that never cracks
	       C
It’s damn cold in Alaska
		              G
And that sun never sleeps

G
She’s got his old CB box

She yells - “breaker, breaker 10”
Em
Won’t you honk if you see the ghost of that truck drivin’ man
	         C				                          G
And please tell him that I love him, and tell him this


Chorus
