        Well, I'm a-running down the road tryin' to loosen my load
                     G                     D2      C
        I've got seven women on my mind
        G                                      D2
        Four that wanna own me, two that wanna stone me
        C                                         G
        One says she's a friend of mine

                                Em D2          C G
                    Take it easy, take it easy
                                         Am                         C                          Em     Em7
                    Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
                                 C                          G                      C                 G
                    Lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand
                                     Am                         C                          G
                    Just find a place to take your stand and take it easy
                                                                                                           G

        Well, I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
        It's such a fine sight to see
        It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
        Slowin' down to take a look at me

                    Come on, baby, don't say maybe
                    I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
                    We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again
                    So open up, I'm climbin' in, so take it easy
                                   *Solo*    (verse & 1st 1/2 of chorus, D2)

        Well, I'm running down the road trying to loosen my load
        Got a world of trouble on my mind
        Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover
        She's so hard to find

                    Take it easy, take it easy
                    Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
                    Come on, baby, don't say maybe
                    I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me

                              C                                                  G                     G7
                              Ooooh-ooh-ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh - oooh-ooh-ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh
                              Ooooh-ooh-ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh - oooh-ooh-ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh
                              C                                                                       G G7 C
                              Ooooh-ooh-ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh - oh, we got it ea~eesy
                                                            G G7 C      Em
