Roll on little hatchback,
chug us up the hill
Roll us down the other side,
chug us on until
F 
The mountains fall behind us
C 
and we see the waving grain
F 
C 
F 
C 
And the world is flat as a tack on a rack
G 
C 
and we hit the red dirt plains
Am 
They say there's nothing out here
C 
and I know that isn't true
F 
It's somewhere

G 
C 
that does its work on you
Great clouds in the distance
gave a half -hearted spit
Got the scent of kangaroos,
trucks and utes had hit
F 
The dead West Dubbo drive -in
C 
waved a wee, deep, farewell
F 
C 
F 
C 
And the road from then took not a bend,
G 
C 
as far as we could tell
Am 
They say this place is empty,
C 
but I know that's not the deal
F 
The wider the horizon,
C

the fuller that you feel

Nice.
We were driving out of Ningan,
G 
C 
saw the petrol gauge way down.
Chucked a nervous U -turn,
barely made it back to town.
F 
We trundled into Cobar
C 
to get a good night's rest.
F 
C 
F 
C 
And Broken Hill was still a good bout
G 
C 
five hours to the west
Am 
They say that once you do it,
C 
the red dirt's in your veins
F 
C 
Well eight hours in
F 
C 
I somehow knew I'd
G 
C 
never be the same
Am 
They say this place is empty,
C 
but I know that's not the deal
F 
C 
F 
The wider the horizon,
C 
G 
C 
the fuller that you feel
Am 
There was red dirt on the hatchback
C 
and bugs smashed in the grill
F

When Laura an d Giselle
C

drove all the way to Broken Hill
