Key: E
Introduction:
D G D
When I pulled out of Basra they all wished me luck
A D A
Just like they always did before
D G D
With a bulletproof screen on the hood of my truck
A D
And a Bradley on my back door
G A D G
And I wound her up and shifted her down
A D A
And I offered this prayer to my lord
D G D
I said 'God get me back home to Houston alive
A D
and I won't drive a truck anymore'
G
Early in the mornin' and I'm rollin' fast
Haulin' nine thousand gallons of high test gas
E A
Look out up ahead here come a R.P.G.
D G D
If I ever get home to Houston alive
A D
Then I won't drive a truck anymore
(Just repeat the above chord changes for the rest of the song)
G
Great God A'mighty what was wrong with me
I know the money's good but buddy can't you see
E A
I don't wanna let 'em get me I'm too young to die
D G D
If I ever get home to Houston alive
A D
Then I won't drive a truck anymore
