B7

[Verse 1]
E7
Moving on down the Tarkio Road
E7
Headed up to Crete, Nebraska
E7
Trying my best to set the highway on fire
E7
But my bicycle won't go no faster
A7
Tarkio Road is a mother
A7
It's just like, oh, so many others
E7
Well, the children reject you
E7
And the police inspect you
B7
Looking inside the trunk
B7
Under the hood, hoping to find
A7
The secret places where you
A7
Always keep your mind
E7 B7
Whoa, whoa, no, Tarkio Road

[Verse 2]
E7
Abbie and Rubin lying in jail
E7
Learning 'bout the price of being free
E7
Trying to live the constitutional life
E7
But being held back by hypocrisy
A7
Carry the load, my brother
A7
You're just like, oh, so many others
E7
Ooh, the children reject it
E7
And the police inspect it
B7
You're tied to the chair
B7
manacled and bound and gagged
A7
cuz that's your place on the American flag
E7 B7 E7
Whoa, whoa, no, carry the load
B7
I'm singing
