D
It's road train dust on a Bulloo track
G
It's canefields getting lit
D
It's combine lights before the dawn
G F# Em
It's an Uluru sunset
G
It's forty thousand years of dreaming
A
The heartland keeps on beating
[Chorus]
D A
That's us flying down an old dirt road
Em
That's us driving through fields of gold
Getting high on a country station
G A
Rollin' through this backroad nation
D A
That's us and I got you next to me
Em
Right here is where I wanna be
We got a good vibration
G A
Livin' in a backroad nation
Wooaahh

It's wild and free it's a saltbush sea
G
Itâ's pink gallahs in flight

It's out of town it's a tailgate down

A way of life, it's the life we're living
A
As long as this big world keeps spinning
[Chorus]
