[INTRO]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
| G | D | Em | Em |

[VERSE 1]
[Em] Some days I think this old machine is out to get me.
[G] Somedays she [D]does what I tell her[Em] .
[Em]It's like dancing with a widow-maker, forty hours a week.
I'm [G]talking about a, big old D-[B]10 caterpillar.

[CHORUS]
[G] I don't know [D]why? I like to [C]drive'm like I [G]do.
It [Em]ain't nothing but a hundred seventy-five [D]thousand pounds of [Em]steel.
[G] Could be the [D]money babe,[C] could be the [G]power.
[C] Could be I love the way it [B]feels.[B7]
[Em] Could be I [Bm]love the way it [Em]feels.

[VERSE 2]
[Em] But you know she's mighty unforgiving and you gotta, pay attention.
Cause the,[G] D-10 could [D]be the death of [Em]you.
[Em]But I, get her all fired up and I, can feel it in my soul.
And it's [G]hard to tell: Just who's driving [B]who?

[VERSE 3]
[Em] I can move Alaska, all the way to Beirut.
[Em]I could,[G] bulldoze a beeline, from here to Peru.
I could, [A]push the Rocky Mountains, into the sea.
You know,[B] Heavy metal, don't mean rock and roll to me.

[BREAK]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
| G | D | Em | Em |

(sax)

[VERSE 4]
[Em] I'm like a, modern day mule skinner, driving ten thousand mules.
So I [G]say a little pray[D]er, every [Em]day.
[Em]Lord, just let me get her turned around.
[Em]Without, falling off this mountain.
You know the [G]boss man, don't like us treating his [B]D-10 that way.

[CHORUS]
[G] I don't know [D]why? I like to [C]drive'm like I [G]do.
It [Em]ain't nothing but a hundred seventy-five [D]thousand pounds of [Em]steel.
[G] Could be the [D]money babe,[C] could be the [G]power.
[C] Could be I love the way it [B]feels.
[Em] Could be I [B]love the way it [Em]feels.

Outro

[Em] Could be I [B]love the way it [Em]feels.
