John Williamson – Campfire On The Road (Guitar)

 C                                      AM 
Camping under the leopard wood   As the sun goes down and the fire is good

 F                    G                       C 
Cause I've managed to find myself some brigalow

 C                                    AM 
And it wouldn't be the same I know Contemplating the fire glow

 F                  G               C 
Without my darlin' out here on the road

 C                               AM 
Now it's a very special thing  To hear the little crickets sing

    F                    G           C 
And there's no need to say another word

 C                                    AM 
Just watch the campfire steal the show And let the inner feelings flow

 F             G                       C 
Release the tension out here on the road

 AM                    F         G    C 
We must never let 'em take this life away

 AM               F         G       C 
Old stock routes belong to one and all

 AM                 F    G    C           AM 
Drovers, dreamers all agree, poets, Aborigines

   F                         G              C 
We have a right to light a campfire on the road

 C                                  AM 
Some people like a river bed      With river gums high overhead

 F                    G               C 
Unroll the swag on a drift of river sand      

 C                                      AM 
But me I search for different sites   I'm not afraid of Min Min lights 

   F                     G              C   
And I welcome spirits out here on the road

 C                                      AM 
And I welcome many signs I see    In a land that's been so good to me

 F                G               C         
That lead me to the soul of inner man 

 C                                  AM 
And I can tell you there are days I see the earth in different ways  

  F                      G              C 
That keep me searching out here on the road

 AM                 F         G        C 
We must never let 'em take this life away

 AM              F         G       C
