Chords for Giddy Up Go

[N] _ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
[G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ The highways that [F#] wind and wander over [C#] mountains and valleys and deserts and plains, _ [G#] I guess
I've drove about all of them.
[F#] Because for the past twenty-five [C#] years now, the cab of
a truck has been my home.
And it'll be kind of hard for me to settle down and not be on
[F#] the road.
But I [C#] remember the first truck I drove.
I was so proud I could hardly wait
to get home to show my wife and little [G#m] boy.
And my little boy was [F#] so excited like when
he [G#] saw his first snow.
[C#] He wasn't old enough to say too many words.
He just kept a [A#m]-hollering,
Giddy up go, Daddy, giddy up [C#] go.
_ [F#] So that's what I named the old truck, [C#] Giddy Up Go.
_ _ Ah, things wasn't too bad.
Of course, I was gone [G#] an awful lot.
_ And then after about six
years [C#] of being in and out, _ I got home one day and found my wife and little boy gone.
_ And I couldn't [F#] find out what happened.
_ [C#] Nobody seemed to know.
_ So from [A#m] that day on, [G#] it's
just been me and old Giddy [F#] Up Go.
Oh, I've made a lot of friends [C#] at all the truck stops.
And some of them would kid me about my little [A#m] son.
_ [C#] Of course, they knew where I'd got the
name.
[F#] Of course, I'd told them about that little boy of [C#] mine and how his first word
about the truck was Giddy Up Go.
_ [G#] _ Well, today I was [F#] barreling down Old [G#] 66 when [C#] up beside
me pulled [G#] a brand new diesel [C#] rig, both [A#m] stacks flowing black [C#] coal.
And as [F#] he pulled around
and back in front of me, a big [C#] lump came in my throat.
And my eyes watered like I had
a bad old cold.
[G#] A little sign on the back of the truck [F#] that read Giddy Up Go.
[C#]
Well,
I pushed old Giddy up and stayed right on him till the next truck stop where he'd pulled
up.
_ And I waited till he went in and [F#] I offered to buy him a cup.
_ [C#] Well, we got to talking
shop and I said, how'd you come by the name on your truck Giddy Up Go?
[G#] _ _ Well, he said,
I got it from my pop.
_ [C#] Dad used to drive a truck.
That's what mom talked about a lot.
_ You see, I lost mom [F#] when I was just past 16 [C#] and I lost all track of pop.
And I was a little
boy.
Mom said he got the name [G#] for me.
_ Well, I shook his hand and told him I had something
I [C#] wanted him to see.
And I took him out to the [A#m] old truck and [C#m] brushed off some of the
dirt so the [F#] name would show.
And his eyes got big and bright as he [C#] read Giddy Up Go.
_ We had a lot of things to talk about and [G#] buddy, I felt like a king.
And now we've just [C#] pulled
back on old 66 and he handled that rig better than any gear jammer that I'd ever seen.
Well,
[C#m] now the lines [F#] on the highway have got a [C#] much brighter glow _ as we go [F#] roaring [A#m] down the road
[G#] and me staring at that little sign that [F#] reads _ [G#]
Giddy Up Go.
