Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Mile marker 203, gass gauge leanin on the edge of "E",

and I'll be dang if the rain ain't pourin down,

There's somethin smokin underneath the hood,

It's a bangin and a clangin and it can't be good,

And it's another fifty miles to the nearest town,

(Bridge)

Everything I own's in the back in a hefty bag,

I'm outta cigarettes and I'm down to my last drag,

(Chorus)

I'd sure hate to break down here,

Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,

out in the middle of nowhere, knowin

I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin,

So GOD help me keep me movin somehow,

Don't let me start wishin I was with him now,

I made it this far without cryin a single tear,

I'd sure hate to break down here,

Under fifty thousand miles ago,

Before the bad blood and busted radio,

You said I was all you'd ever need,

But love is blind and little did I know,

You were just another dead end road,

Paved with pretty lies and broken dreams,

(Bridge)

Baby leavin you is easier than being gone,

I don't know what I'd do if one more thing goes wrong,

(Chorus)

I'd sure hate to break down here,

Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,

out in the middle of nowhere, knowin

I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin,

So GOD help me keep me movin somehow,

Don't let me start wishin I was with him now,

I made it this far without cryin a single tear,

I'd sure hate to break down here, oh no,

(Chorus)

I'd sure hate to break down here,

Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,

out in the middle of nowhere, knowin

I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin,

So GOD help me keep me movin somehow,

Don't let me start wishin I was with him now,

I made it this far without cryin a single tear,

I'd sure hate to break down,

It's too late to turn around,

I'd sure hate to break down here,

Mile marker 215,
