[Intro]
   B E      G#7 C#m
Forever, forever

    F#               B     E
The road goes on forever
[Verse]
E
If your wheels are burning up the miles

           A                 B
And you're wearing down shoe leather

         E
And your face is frozen in a smile

        A         B      E
And the road goes on forever

   B E      G#7 C#m
Forever, forever

    F#               B
The road goes on forever
[Chorus]
         E      B
Over the next hill..

A     B               E
Maybe there's good weather
[Instrumental] E A B E A B E [Verse]
E
If you're flying over table top

     A                  B
Eyes wide with wine and wonder

   E
Or lazy counting kangaroos

       A      B         E
In the dingle days down under

     B E         G#7 C#m
Down under, down under

   F#                B
In dingle days, down under
[Chorus]
         E      B
Over the next hill..

        A       B           E
There's no more rain or thunder
[Instrumental] E A B E A B E Bm [Bridge]
                          A                  E        Bm
Though you chose the open road when you were willing

                               A                  E         Bm
To sing and dance and take the tambourine and the shilling

                          A                  E         Bm
All the secret tricks and footsteps you were learning

                             A                  B       A  B  A
But once the stone begins to roll, it's not the turning

               B  A  B  A
Like a rolling stone

                  B
With no direction home
[Instrumental] E A B E A B E E A B E A B E Bm [Bridge]
                          A                  E        Bm
Though you chose the open road when you were willing

                               A                  E         Bm
To sing and dance and take the tambourine and the shilling

                          A                  E         Bm
All the secret tricks and footsteps you were learning

                             A                  B       A  B  A
But once the stone begins to roll, it's not the turning

               B  A  B  A
Like a rolling stone

                  B
With no direction home
[Verse]
          E
If you're pacing in the dressing room

              A                 B
Where there's no fresh paint or windows

          E
Or you're strutting on some dusty stage

    A         B              E
And wondering where the time goes

    B    E         G#7  C#m
The time goes, the time goes

F#                       B
Wondering where the time goes
[Chorus]
         E      B
Over the next hill..

     A         B           E
They say there will be rainbows

    B   E     G#7 C#m
Oh, rainbows, rainbows

F#                 B
Somewhere over rainbows
[Chorus]
         E      B
Over the next hill..

A         B              E
Who knows where the time goes
[Outro] E A B E A B E E A B E A B E
