[Verse]
D
Mile marker 203
    Bm
The gas gauge leanin' on the edge of 'E'
G                                            D    A
And I'll be danged if the rain ain't pourin' down
D
Something's smokin' underneath the hood
          Bm
There's a bangin' and a clangin' and it cant be good
G                                        D
And it's another 50 miles to the nearest town

F#m                                       Bm
Everything I own's in the back in a Hefty bag
    F#m                                       G
I'm out of cigarettes and I'm down to my last drag

[Chorus]
D
I'd sure hate to break down here
G
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
A
Out in the middle of nowhere knowin'
G                       A
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'
D
So God help me keep me movin' somehow
     G
Dont let me start wishin' I was with her now
     A                        F#7            Bm
I've made it this far without cyin' a single tear
    G                A          D
And I'd sure hate to break down here

[Verse]
D
A hundred fifty thousand miles ago
   Bm
Be fore the bad blood and busted radio
G                             D    A
You said I was all you'd ever need
D
But love is blind and little did i know
Bm
That you were just another dead-end road
G                                 D
Paved with pretty lies and broken dreams

F#m                                     Bm
Baby, leaving you was easier than being gone
F#m                                            G
Don't know what i'll do if one more thing goes wrong

[Chorus]
D
I'd sure hate to break down here
G
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
A
Out in the middle of nowhere knowin'
G                       A
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'
D
So God help me keep me movin' somehow
     G
Dont let me start wishin' I was with her now
     A                        F#7            Bm
I've made it this far without cyin' a single tear
    G                A          D
And I'd sure hate to break down here

D
I'd sure hate to break down here
G
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
A
Out in the middle of nowhere knowin'
G                       A
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'
D
So God help me keep me movin' somehow
     G
Dont let me start wishin' I was with her now
     A                        F#7            Bm
I've made it this far without cyin' a single tear
    G                A
And I'd sure hate to break down
G                A
It's too late to turn around
G                                  D
I'd sure hate to (N.C.) break down here
