The opening uses a variation(i.e. -- these chords, but i don't want to
write out the tab for it) of these chords(in this order): D C D C
RE DO SOL RE
RE DO SOL RE
It's a busted old town on the plains of West Texas.
RE DO SOL RE
The drugstore's closed down, and the river runs dry.
RE DO SOL RE
The semis roll through like stainless steel stallions
RE DO SOL
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
RE DO SOL
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
(after this the song uses the same progression, even for the solos -- which
i won't transcribe here either.)
And the mission still stands at the edge of the plateau.
A stone marks the graves where the old cowboys lie.
Asleep in a time, in a town just a youngster
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
And the drive-in don't play no Friday night pictures.
No big silver screen to light up the sky.
Gone are the days of post-war-time lovers
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
And me -- I stand here at the last fillin' station
Where the wind moans a dirge to the coyote's cry.
I jump in my car; I'm back out on the highway
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
