Version 1From: Perret Charles Date: Tue, 23 May 1995 16:42:15 +0200 (METDST) /************** TURN THE PAGE ***************/ by Waylon Jennings Verse 1: Em/ Em/ On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha D/ D/ You can listen to the engine moaning out its one note song A/ A/ Em And you think about the woman or the girl the night before Verse 2: Em/ Em/ But your thoughts will soon be wondering the way they always do D/ D/ When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do A/ A/ Em And you don't feel much like ridin' you just wish the trip was through Chorus: D Em Here I am on the road again, D Em There I am up on the stage D A Here I go, playin' the star again C D Em There I go, turn the page Verse 3: Em Well you walk into a restaurant strung out from the road D And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold A Em You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode Verse 4: Em Most times you can hear them talkin', other times you can't D All the same old cliches, is that a woman or a man A Em and you always seem outnumbered so you don't dare make a stand Chorus Verse 5: Em Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away D Every ounce of energy you try to give away A Em as the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play Verse 6: Em/ Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed D/ Echoes from the amplifiers ringing in your head A/ Em And you smoke the day's last cigarette remembering what you said Chorus 2 times.
