Woman Behind The Man Behind The Wheel Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
Those [C]hard drivin' truckers
Gear jammin' day and night
Have got a real tough job to stand up [G]to
By ballin' down the highway
In a big long diesel rig
It's not a job just anyone [C]can do

[Verse 2]
But there's [C]a lot of credit due
To a fine group of girls
They're the truckers wives
who wait for their [G]men
When they kiss them goodbye
And watch the tail lights fade
It's a lonely wait until [C]they're home again

[Verse 3]
[C]
He [F]may be gone three days
Or maybe two weeks
And [D]everything is left in her [G]care
Like payin' bills and cuttin' grass
And fixin' kids their meals
She's the woman behind
the man behind the [C]wheel

[Interlude 1]
Instrumental
[C][G]
[C]

[Verse 4]
This [C]special breed of woman
Has to share a love affair
With that long stretch
of highway on his [G]mind
But she knows that he loves her
More than anything
She's a truckers wife
and that's the greatest kind
[C]

[Verse 5]
And as he sips his coffee
You can bet she's on his mind
When he's drivin' down
that highway all [G]alone
And that sleeper sure gets lonely
Parked at a big truck stop
Compared to be[C]ing in her arms at home
[F]Now

[Verse 6]
we've sung songs and praises
About the truckin' men
[C]And they're tru[D]e let's
save one little [G]spiel
For [C]all the truckers [G]wives
Because after all
She's the woman behind
the man behind [C]the wheel
She's the [G]woman behind
the man behind the wheel
[C]
