Nothing But A Good Ride

Written by Lyle Lovett

Capo on 1st fret
	  		 
 
Intro: G C G  G C G  G C G  G C G     
               C 
He?s pulling out for Reno 
                G 
He hopes a tire don?t blow 
        D 
Up near Albuquerque 
                        G 
He?ll fuel and get some coffee 
                C 
Cline?s Corners truck stop 
                  G 
A waitress with a wet mop 
               D 
Telling him to don?t walk 
                    G 
He tips his hat and don?t talk 
 
CHORUS 
                            C         D C 
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride 
                            G           C G 
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide 
                           D          C D 
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin 
                         G           C G 
No there?s nothing to it do it again 
                        C        D C 
No it?s nothing but the big show 
                           G        C G 
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go 
                   D        C D 
No he never has to ask why 
                            G   C G  G   C G 
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride 
 
                                  C 
He says there?s something about a sunrise 
          G 
Waking up sleepy eyes 
                                  D 
He says there?s something about a highway 
               G 
Telling him he can?t stay 
                                  C 
He says there?s something about a long drive 
                    G 
That gives him some peace of mind 
                              D 
And there?s something that he can?t take 
                    G 
When he?s coming in second place 
 
CHORUS 
                            C         D C 
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride 
                            G           C G 
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide 
                           D          C D 
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin 
                         G           C G  
No there?s nothing to it do it again 
                        C        D C  
No it?s nothing but the big show 
                           G        C G 
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go 
                   D       C D 
No he never has to ask why 
                            G         C G 
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride 
 
BREAK: C-G-D-G-C-G-D-G 
 
                  C 
And when it?s all over 
                    G 
He?ll move a little slower 
                     D 
He?ll back up to the trailer 
                G 
And look toward Oklahoma 
                                 C 
He?ll pull out right through the middle of town 
                        G 
And watch the sun start sinking down 
                           D 
Still just lighting up the road signs 
                           G 
Getting ready for the next time. 
 
 
CHORUS 
                            C         D C 
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride 
                            G           C G 
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide 
                           D          C D 
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin 
                         G           C G 
No there?s nothing to it do it again 
                        C         D C 
No it?s nothing but the big show 
                           G         C G 
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go 
                   D        C D 
No he never has to ask why 
                            G----C G  G----C G  G----C   G
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride
