[Verse]
G
There's a freight train roaring through the dead of night
Em
Heading straight for Yuma
C G
I hear it every time it rolls through this town
G
It's one a.m. and I'm wide awake
Em
Too hot for sleeping
C G
Those wheels keep spinning 'round and 'round
G
Wheels keep spinning 'round and 'round
Em
Me and that train covered lot of ground
C
I wish I may, I wish I might
G
It's gonna be another long hot night
[Bridge]
G Em C G
[Verse]
G
Trucks are flying up and down I-10
Em
I can hear them in the distance
C G
Tired drivers trying to beat the heat
G
We used to drive with the headlights out
Em
Moonlight on the highway
C G
You were sleeping with your head in my lap
G
You were sleeping with your head in my lap
Em
Life don't get much better than that
C
Hubcaps spinning in the light
G
It's gonna be another long hot night
[Bridge]
D C G
How'd I let it get to be so wrong?
D C G
The days roll by but the nights drag on
D C G
Trying to find a way to get on track
Em C G
But I'm spinning wheels, looking back
Em C G
I'm just spinning wheels, looking back
[Solo]
D C G X2
[Verse]
G
Shots ring out in the middle of a dream
Em
Car tires squealing
C G
For a moment I wonder where I am
G
I'm right here in this little hot house
Em
With no one beside me
C G
I'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fan
G
I'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fan
Em
I wish I were a better man
C G
Gonna keep trying till I get it right
G
It's gonna be another long hot night
[Bridge]
G Em C G x2

G Em C G
Ooh Long hot night, long hot night, long hot night
