(verse 1)  
C                Am7  
Mile marker 203, gass gauge leanin on the edge of "E",  
F                                            C - G  
 and I'll be dang if the rain ain't pourin down,  
C                     
There's somethin smokin underneath the hood,  
       Am7  
It's a bangin and a clangin and it can't be good,  
F                                             C - G  
 And it's another fifty miles to the nearest town,  
  
  
(bridge)  
Em7                                       Am7  
Everything I own's in the back in a hefty bag,  
Em7                                            F  
I'm outta cigarettes and I'm down to my last drag,  
  
  
(chorus)  
C  
I'd sure hate to break down here,  
Am7  
Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,  
F  
out in the middle of nowhere, knowin  
G                           
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin,  
C  
So GOD help me keep me movin somehow,  
Am7  
Don't let me start wishin I was with him now,  
   F                        Em (xx6454)     Am (x77555)  
I made it this far without cryin a single tear,

C  
Under fifty thousand miles ago,  
Am7  
Before the bad blood and busted radio,  
F                               C - G  
 You said I was all you'd ever need,  
C  
But love is blind and little did I know,  
Am7  
You were just another dead end road,  
F                                    C - G  
 Paved with pretty lies and broken dreams,  
  
  
(bridge)  
Em7                                   Am7  
Baby leavin you is easier than being gone,  
Em7                                              F    (G)  
I don't know what I'd do if one more thing goes wrong,  
  
  
(chorus)  
C  
I'd sure hate to break down here,  
Am7  
Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,  
F  
out in the middle of nowhere, knowin  
G                           
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin,  
C  
So GOD help me keep me movin somehow,  
Am7  
Don't let me start wishin I was with him now,  
   F                        Em (xx6454)     Am (x77555)  
I made it this far without cryin a single tear,  
 F                 G         Am      F - G  
I'd sure hate to break down here, oh no,  
  
  
(chorus)

Nothing up ahead or in the rear view mirror,  
F  
out in the middle of nowhere, knowin

It's too late to turn around,  
 F                 G         C  
I'd sure hate to break down here,  
            Csus - C
