Mates On The Road chords by John Williamson
Verse 1
G
Camping under the leopard wood
Em
As the sun goes down
and the fire is good
C
D
Cos I've managed to find my
G
self some Brigalow
And it wouldn't be the same, I know
Em
Contemplating the fire glow
C
D
G
Without my darling out here on the road
Now it's a very special thing
Em
To hear the little crickets sing
C
D
And there's no need to say another word
G
Just watch the campfire steal the show
Em
And let the inner feelings flow
C
D
G
Release the tension out here on the road

D
G
Some people like a river bed
Em
With river gums high overhead
C
D
And roll the swag on a drift of river sand
G
But me, I search for different sights
Em
I'm not afraid of min -min lights
C
D
And I welcome spirits out
G
here on the road
And I welcome any signs I see
Em
And a land that's been so good to me
C
D
That lead me to the soul of inner man
G
And I can tell you there are days
Em
I see the earth in different ways
C
That keep me searching
D
G
out here on the road
