Version 1 Version 2[Intro] C I left my sweetheart a long time ago F C She cried and she pleaded and begged me not to go We had a quarrel and I started to roam G7 C Big wheels big wheels carry me home [Chorus] Oh big wheels a-rolling carry me back F C I know my baby's waiting down by the railroad track I can see old drivers I hear old whistles moan G7 C Big wheels big wheels carry me home [Verse] I dreamed of her in Texas Nevada was the same F C Oh way up in New Hampshire I even called her name She said she still loved me when I called her on the phone G7 C Big wheels big wheels carry me home [Chorus] Oh big wheels a-rolling carry me back F C I know my baby's waiting down by the railroad track I can see old drivers I hear old whistles moan G7 C Big wheels big wheels carry me home [Verse] If I could travel over to England or to Spain F C Or way down in the South Seas I know it'd be the same In Germany or Switzerland or in the town of Rhome G7 C I'd think of her and tell the world carry me home [Chorus] Oh big wheels a-rolling carry me back F C I know my baby's waiting down by the railroad track I can see old drivers I hear old whistles moan G7 C Big wheels big wheels carry me home
