[G]
I came from a town that was so small, you look both ways you [D] could see [G] it all.
All I wanted was some way out, every evening I'd slip into town,
and [C] stand around by the caution [G] light, [D] and watch the big trucks rolling [G] by.
[C] To me it was a beautiful [G] sight, [D] big wheels and [G] moonlight.
I had a case of wanderlust, I'd lie awake with the windows up,
and out on highway 59 I could hear some big old diesel whine.
She [C] was going through all [G] the gears, and [D] headed out to who knows [G] where.
[C] Well I'd sleep most every [G] night, [D] dreaming about big wheels and [G] moonlight.
And [C] I want to put my [G] life on the center [D] line, and [C] I want to see [G] the world before [D] I die.
And I [Em] know that there's [G] a peace I'll never [C] find.
Cause [G] those big old wheels keep on [D]
rolling through my [G] mind.
[F] [C]
[F] [G]
How I got here it's hard to say, so many things [D] got in [G] my way.
Can't complain about all I've got, kids and a wife and a regular job.
But [C] at night when I'm sitting [G] here, [D] all alone in the living [G] room chair,
[C] sometimes I [G] close my eyes and [D] see big wheels and [G]
moonlight.
And [C] I want to put my [G] life on the center [D] line, and [C] I want to see [G] the world before [D] I die.
And [E] I [Em] know that there's [G] a peace I'll never [C]
find.
Cause [G] those big old wheels [D] keep on rolling through my [G] mind.

Cause [G] those big old wheels [D] keep on rolling through [G] my mind.
[F] [C] Yes [G] those big old wheels [D] keep on rolling through [C] my mind.
