4/4 time

Chorus 1
[E]Roll On highway, Roll On a-[A]long.
[E]Roll On daddy till you get back [A]home.
[E]Roll on fam'ly, Roll On [A]crew.
[E]Roll On mama like I asked you to do.
And [F#m]Roll On Eighteen [B]Wheeler, Roll On. [E]

E   |  A |E   | A

verse 1
[A]Well it's Monday mornin', he's kissin' mama goodbye.
He's up and gone with the [C#m]sun.
[A]Daddy drives an eighteen wheeler,
and he's off on a midwest run.[E]

And three sad faces gather 'round mama.
They ask her when daddy's comin' [C#m]home.
[A]Daddy drives an eighteen wheeler,
and they sure miss him when he's [E]gone.

Climb 1:
Ah, but he [A]calls 'em ev'ry [G#m]night and [F#7]tells 'em
that he loves[B] them.
He taught 'em this song to sing:

(repeat chorus 1) afterward, key changes from E to F

F   |F Bb

verse 2
[Bb]Well it's [F]Wednesday evening.
Mama's waitin' by the phone.
It rings but it's not his [Dm]voice.
Seems the high-[Bb]way patrol has found a jack-knifed rig
in a snowbank in Illinois.[F]

But the driver was missin',
and the search had been abandoned
'cause the weather had ev'rything [Dm]stalled.
And they had [Bb]checked all the houses and the local motels;
when they had some more news they'd call.[F]

Climb 2:
And she told [Bb]them when they [Am]found him to tell [Gm7]him
that she loved[C] him.
And she hung up the phone singin':

Chorus 2:
[F]Roll On highway, Roll On a-[Bb]long.
[F]Roll On daddy till you get back [Bb]home.
[F]Roll on fam'ly, Roll On [Bb]crew.
[F]Roll On mama like I asked you to do.
And [Gm]Roll On Eighteen [C]Wheeler, Roll On. [Dm]

Bridge:
[Dm]Mama and the children will be [Am7]waiting up all night long,
thinkin' [Bb]nothin' but the worst is comin'
with the ring-[F]in' of the telephone.
Oh, but the [Dm]Man upstairs was list'nin'
when Mama [Bb]asked him to bring Daddy home.
And when the [Gm]call came in, it was Daddy on the other end,
[C]askin' her if she had been a-singin' the song, singin':

REPEAT Chorus 2, but instead of Dm at the end of "Roll On Eighteen Wheeler,
Roll On", make it an F.

F   |  Bb |
[F]Eighteen whee-[Bb]ler
[F]Eighteen whee-[Bb]ler
[F]Eighteen whee-[Bb]ler
[F]Eighteen whee-[Bb]ler----(hold until finally "roll on!")
Bb   |Fm/Bb
[F]Roll On!
