Well, I'm running down this mountain pass at midnight
C D G
Those truckers they all flash their lights at me
C D
This highway ain't the very best companion
C D G
'Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be
C D
The moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking
C D G D
'Bout the way your smile shines upon your face
G C D
And I know this ain't the last beer I'll be drinking
C D G
Before I reach my final resting place
A11 C F G
Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a-sleeping
C D
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made

But I'm running down this mountain pass at midnight
C D G
Wishing I was in your arms again

To dry those lonesome tears that she's been crying
