The Road 

Intro

Dm	Gm 	Bb	F	Gm  x2


Dm
Headlights, white lines, black tar rivers 
Gm           Bb         F            Gm
Dragging me around this country as it withers 
Dm
The billboards, signposts, standing in the way 
      Gm                 Bb                   Gm
Tell of the state of the nations, that we find today 


            Bb           F              Eb
And we’ll play and we’ll play and we’ll play
          Bb         F        Eb
To every day, every day every day
        Bb
To every day 

Repeat Intro


In the front rooms of old towns far from the city 
With beat up guitars and hearts full of pity 
The people gather round singing songs from everywhere 
Torn from the nation, left without a care 

CHORUS 
         Gm              F          Gm          Bb
And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word 
          Gm             F
And we'll rid the bloody world cos 
      Eb                               Bb              
The words that you heard when you were young will always stay
      F                             Eb                  Bb      
The one's that always stay make the world go away,   go away
 
Repeat Intro


Warm night, clear sky, European town 
Out side the bars singing their hearts out to a crowd
Open boots, violin, banjo and a voice 
Exiled buskers, happy with their choice 

CHORUS
