Well, I'm running down this mountain pass at midnight 
      C                 D                     G 
Those truckers they all flash their lights at me 
                       C            D
This highway ain't the very best companion 
         C                      D               G
'Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be 
 
 
                     C                 D
The moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking 
          C              D                G     D
'Bout the way your smile shines upon your face 
      G                   C                 D
And I know this ain't the last beer I'll be drinking 
  C               D             G
Before I reach my final resting place 
 
 
CHORUS:
    A11 C               F              G
Oh, I   wish that I was in your arms a-sleeping 
                C                  D
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made 
        G                 C                D
But I'm running down this mountain pass at midnight 
C             D             G
Wishing I was in your arms again

                          C                 D
Oh, my wheels are running hard against this mountain 
  C                   D         G     D
I finally crossed the Archuleta line 
 G               C               D
Another hour and I'll be with my darling
   C                  D                     G
To dry those lonesome tears that she's been crying
 
 
CHORUS:
    A11 C               F              G
But I   wish that I was in your arms a-sleeping

Dreaming of the sweet love we just made 
        G                 C                D
But I'm running down this mountain pass at midnight 
C             D             G
Wishing I was in your arms again

A-wishing I was in your arms again
