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. 
           A 
We stand united,

     E  
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.
