G
Sleep don’t overtake me here, don’t run me down like this 
      G 
I got miles before they gonna lay me down I ain’t ready yet
                 C
No I ain’t there yet 
G
Quaalude Highway hypnotizing the lines across my face 
G
One more sign before my mind begins hallucinating 
            C
Can’t stay awake 
           D                                             G  
So give me something strong and let the night roll on to day 



Chorus:
           D                      G
Unsleeping eye, don’t you fail me now 
               D                            G
Crack a window wide and put your right foot down 
   Am                   C
So daydream through the night 
              G
But keep them wheels a spinning round and round 
           D                          G 
Unsleeping eye, say don’t you fail me now 


There’s a girl at home she waiting up ‘til dawn 
Lord she could use some sleep 
I flash my brights and I dim my lights 
I sink down a little deeper into my seat 
Just to get back home this old rolling stone 
Gone a thousand miles a night 
Grant me speed and eyes to see my lonely girl tonight 
She’s so outta sight 
Lord don’t make me sleep like a refugee it ain’t right 

Chorus 


Bridge:
C
Blacktop asphalt grooving past all the rhythm in the lines 
C
I’m locked down deep into the pocket, the sunrise keeping my time 
C
All I ask is a tank of gas and a cup of coffee strong
C
Highway moon gonna keep me moving, I’m driving all night long 

Chorus
