[Intro]

[Verse 1]
DThis tank is almost empty and this is my last load
DI'm counting down the minutes till I get to Go back home
GIt's been 10 long days of working
DWhile she sits at home all alone
A G D A DI got seven days to love her and these 18 wheels are burning up the road
[Verse 2]
DThe stars are bright above me and I'm howling at the moon babe
DI hope to be there by tomorrow afternoon
G DI know that you hate waiting but this truck is doing all it can do
A G DAnd with any luck tomorrow I'll be spending supper time with you
[Chorus]
GIt's been 10 days on the road I'm trying to get back home
DMy baby's sitting on the couch blowing up my phone
GI know that she ain't happy I'm pretty sure she's lit
DI don't know how much longer she'll be putting up with this
A GSo I better get back home just as fast as I can
D A DBefore she up and leaves me for some wealthy businessman
[Guitar Solos]
G D A G D
[Bridge]
GI pull up the driveway I'm ready for a fight
DThe lawn is covered in old blue jeans and half smoked Marlboro lights
GI guess she's finally had it she's taken all she can
DIt's just a broken story of a long haul trucking man
A GIt's hard to please a woman who could never please her man
D A DShe's taken me for granted Lord please help me understand

[Chorus]
GIt was 10 days on the road I'm trying to get back home
DShe set fire to the couch along with most my clothes
GI knew that she was crazy but who expected this
DEverything was torn apart soakin’ wet and singed
A GI didn't make it home before it all went up in flames
D A DSo I put my truck back into gear and I just drove away
[Outro]
D Good riddance woman don't ya come back around here no more ya hear
