Sons Of The Road

        E
It's an unexplained devotion,
               Emaj7            E
That makes you climb behind the wheel.
          A            E
And guide 40 tons of missile,
                       B
From the coast to Camooweal.
         E
It's the feel of turbo muscle,
     Emaj7          E
That gets into your bones.
         A              E
It's the romance of the long haul,
      B                 E
Bein' out there on your own.

       A           E
We are Sons of the Road,
     B               E
Like brothers we are bound.
       A             Em
To the rhythm of the highway,
      E              B
An' a rumblin diesel sound.
             A           E
And down that long white line,
  B              Dbm
Together we will roll.
           A
We stand united,
D    A      E    A  D  A  Em
Sons of the Road.

There's a long tradition
         B                     E
From the days when the bullock teams
           A                E
Would haul loads across the outback,
                         B
'Cross flats and steep ravines.
   E
We carry on the journey,
         B             E
Of those pioneers gone by.
     A            E
With 22 wheels on bitumen,
    B         E
And 25 tons behind .

       A           E
We are Sons of the Road,
     B               E
Like brothers we are bound.
       A             Em
To the rhythm of the highway,
      E              B
An' a rumblin diesel sound.
             A           E
And down that long white line,
  B              Dbm
Together we will roll.

We stand united,

It's stoppin' at the roadhouse,

For a coffee, fuel and chat.

And tippin' off your mates,

'bout a radar 10 miles back.
          E
Well it's stakin' out the blockade,
          B               E
When they try to move you on.
           A             E
And you're backed into a corner,
      B               E
Gets emotions running strong.

       A           E
We are Sons of the Road,
