[Verse1]
I[G]I got her letter in a litt[D]little mail box
[C]I forgot at I had at an old truck stop
And I [G]read it once and [D]read it again
[C]I could hardly keep from cryin
 
[Verse2]
I've been[G]been driving around the last[D]last week or so
With and[C]and empty truck I don't have a load
I d[G]don't care cause to tell [D]you the truth
[C]I think I might be dyin
 
[Chorus]
And it's [G]trucker speed, [D]benzedrine
[C]Percocets and amphetamines
[G]Black beautys and [D]west coast turn a[C]arounds
[G]When the coast is clear I [D]drive with my knees
[C]I mix it all up in a recipe
[G]Coca-cola and c[D]coffee to wash it [C]down
[G]Sometimes I feel like my w[D]wheels ain't touching the g[C]ground
 
[Verse3]
At the [G]side of the road he said[D]said you're a mess
When I [C]told him she didn't leave an address

I'll be[C]be back in a little while
 
[Verse4]
I p[G]put my head a[D]across my arms
S[C]Slept on the wheel for an hour or more
And [G]I started it up and [D]took off
into[C]into the night

And it's [G]trucker speed, [D]benzedrine
[C]Percocets and amphetamines
[G]Black beautys and [D]west coast turn a[C]arounds
[G]When the coast is clear I [D]drive with my knees
[C]I mix it all up in a recipe
[G]Coca-cola and c[D]coffee to wash it [C]down

[Verse5]
I've been hi[G]high-centered and l[D]low throttle
When [C]I couldn't stop I peed in a bottle
I've been[G]been so lonesome I made Han[D]Hank Willaims
Look li[C]like a party of five
 
[Verse6]
I've been [G]beat up br[D]broke down
[C]Load it on a truck and drive it to town
I al[G]always thought you'd be t[D]there at the end
