[Verse 1]
G
The night was black, the roads were icy
C G
Snow was falling, drifts were high
And I was weary, from my driving
D7 G
And I stopped to rest for awhile
I sat down at a truck stop
C G
I was thinking about my past
[Chorus 1]
C
I've had a long streak of that bad luck
G D7 G7
But I'm praying it's gone at last
[Chorus 2]
G
Gone at last, gone at last
C G
Gone at last, gone at last
C
I had a long streak of bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last
Ooo,oo,oo,oo,oo,oo...Ooo, oo, oo, oo, oo

[Verse 2]
I ain't dumb
I kicked around some
C G
I don't fall too easily
C
But that boy looked so dejected
G D G
He just grabbed my sympathy
Sweet little soul now, what's your problem?
C G
Tell me why you're so downcast
