He'd swear all his birthdays
had rolled into one

Bm 
D 
on his maiden run
G 
A 
Up to the far north of Queensland
D 
A 
I tell him the names
Bm 
A 
of the truck stops and towns
D 
G 
The stretches and corners
Gm 
and where they'll be found
D 
A 
The stories and yarns
Bm 
I've picked up  on my rise
D 
G 
A 
And he listens with wide open eyes
G 
Cause he's ridin' on
D 
dieseling dreams
G 
Down a highway that runs
A 
through his mind
G 
Behind the wheel
D 
G 
of the biggest rig he's ever seen
A

Ridin' on dieseling dream

Oh yeah, he's a truck driver's son
D 
A

A 
Given the chance, he'd be in my shoes
G 
But right now he's primed
D 
Gm 
for an afternoon snooze
D 
A 
Though he is determined
Bm 
to look out for loose
D 
G

A 
through his mind

While my boys doze me,

the memories flood in

with my dad again

Telling myself how I'll be  just like him

when I try to explain
