42 Miles 
Cross Canadian Ragweed
CD: Highway 377
Transcribed by Cade Smith


Intro:  A---G---D
A
42 more miles 

This stuff it cramps my style
          D         E              A
Broke down on the side of the road
A thousand flies a buzzin'
Sittin' spittin' and cussin'
   D         E            A
Sittin' on top of our load

(chorus)
       C#m     D          A
If I ever get out of the hole
       C#m      D        E
If I ever get down the road
        E
I got 42 miles to go

5:30 in the evening
Mechanic phone's a ringin'
Is he ever gonna fix our ride
You know I ain't bitchin', but bad new is all we're getting
Just need a little luck on our side

(repeat chorus)

that fire siren screamin'
Still I'm not believin'
That much goes on in the town
You know if I had the chance I'd do a chicken dance
After I watched it burn to the ground

(repeat chorus)
