      I suggest playing the chords barred throughout the whole song as it is easier to change positions from 
chord to chord and as some of the chord changes happen fast.

This is the opening "riff", after playing it once you strum a G chord (I suggest barre, as your fingers are
in the right place at the end of the riff) twice and repeat the tab once more.

e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------8h10--8-------------------------------------------------| Strum
G|----------------7h9--7------7h9--7h9--7-----------9--7h9--7h9--7---------------------------------| G twice
D|---5h7--5h7--5----------------------------------------------------7h9--9--7h9--7h9--7--2h5--5----| then 
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| repeat
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Keep playing that G for a little bit then start the song:

[Verse 1]
         C    G             Am         C
When the wind blows and the rain feels cold
                 G               C           G
With a head full of snow, with a head full of snow
       C  G              Am       C
In the window, there’s a face you know
                   G                 C           G
Don’t the night pass slow? Don’t the nights pass slow?

[Chorus 1]
C                                G
  The sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind
Am           D        C          G
Just another mad, mad day on the road
C                        G
  I am just living to be lying by your side
        Am           D         C                G
But I’m just about a moonlight mile on down the road

[Verse 2]
       G   C          Am     C
Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes
                 G               C       G
Going to warm my bones, going to warm my bones
         C  G          Am  C
I’ve got silence on my radio
                  G             C         G
Let the air waves flow, let the air waves flow

[Chorus 2]
C                          G
  Oh, I am sleeping under strange, strange skies
Am           D        C          G
Just another mad, mad day on the road
C                              G
  My dream is fading down the railway line
    Am           D         C                G
I’m just about a moonlight mile on down the road

Yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
G                            C  G
I’m hiding, sister, and I’m dreaming
G                    C         G
I’m riding down your moonlight mile
G                         C   G
I’m hiding, baby, but I’m dreaming
G                    C         G
I’m riding down your moonlight mile
G                    C         G
I’m riding down your moonlight mile

Am  C G
             Am  C G
Let it go now
                Am  C G
Come on up, baby 
                   Am  C G
Yeah, let it go now
                    Am  C G
Yeah, flow now, baby
                      Am  C G
Yeah, come on now, yeah

Hey

[Outro]
D               C
Yeah I’m coming home
          Am           D         C                G
Cause I’m just about a moonlight mile on down the road
            D                 C
On down the road, on down the road
                G
Yeah, yeah baby


* Where the chords are closer together you play half as many strums as normal.
