[A]
[E]
[A] [E] I was sitting in a truck stop
[A] Watching Tom the wheel [E] drove by
Trying to read the menu
[B] When the waitress caught my eye
[E] She pulled a pencil from her hair
[A] And leaned across the bar
[E] And I did my best not to [B] stare
But man, she [E] made it hard
[A] [E] And I asked that trucker next to [A] me
Hey, what looks [E] good today?
He said, I know what's on your [B] mind
But boy, there ain't no way
[E] Get yourself some apple pie
[A] Or something cool to drink
[E] I know you want the special
[B] Not like the [E] way you think
[A] But you can't have the waitress
For everybody's tribe
[B] There's a cowboy down in Abilene
[E] That keeps her satisfied
[A] They got a hundred acre dream
That's [E] getting closer [A] every day
[E] Just a few more [A] plates of ham and [B] eggs
And a few good [E] rides away
[A] [E] Hard times in West Texas down [A] here
[E] Everything's for sale
There's some things we hold safe
[B] And everything else pays
[E] When we're down to nothing out [A] here Everybody shares
[E] Most of us have lost our [B] dreams
So we bought [E] into theirs
[A] [E] Yeah, I've seen her walk a hundred [A] miles
Up and down [E] this floor
But I've never seen her fail to smile
[B] When he limps through that door
[E] So when you're done, you leave a tip
[A] Make it nice and fat
[E] Feel like you can own a piece
[B] Or something like [E] that
[E] You can't [A] have the waitress
[E] For everybody's tribe
[B] There's a cowboy down in Abilene
[E] That keeps her satisfied
They [A] got a hundred acre dream
That's [E] getting closer [A] every day
[E] Just a few more [A] plates of ham and eggs
[B] And a few good [E] rides away
[A] No, you can't have the waitress
[E] For everybody's tribe
[B] There's a cowboy down in Abilene
[E] That keeps her satisfied
They [A] got a hundred acre dream
That's [E] getting closer [A] every day
[F#] [E] Just a few more plates [A] of ham and eggs
[B] And a few good [E] rides away
Just a few more plates [A] of ham and eggs
