[G]

[Verse 1]
He [C]leans out
the [G]window and [Am]waves to his Mum
You'd [F]swear all his birthdays
had rolled into [G]one
'Cause [C]he's headin'
[Em]out on h[Am]is maiden run
[F]Up to the far north of [G]Queensland
[C]I tell him the [G]names of [Am]the truck
stops and towns
[F]The stretches and corners and
where they'll be [G]found
[C]The stories and [Em]yarns I've
picked [Am]up on my rounds
And he [F]listens with [G]wide—open eyes
[F][G][Em]
'Cause he's [F]riding on
dies[C]eline dreams
Down a [F]highway that runs
through his [G]mind
Behind the [F]wheel of the biggest
rig [C]he's ever [F]seen
[C]Riding [G]on dies[C]eline dreams[F][C][G]
[C]His ears are [G]glued to that [Am]cracklin' C.B
But [F]he's got that lingo down to a [G]tee
And there's [C]pride in his [Em]eyes
when he [Am]looks up at me
Oh [F]yeah he's a truck driver[G]s' son
And [C]given the [G]chance
he'd [Am]be in my shoes
But [F]right now he's primed for
an afternoon [G]snooze
[C]Though he's de[Em]termined
to [Am]look out for 'roos
The [F]road finally lulls him [G]away[Em]
And [G]he's [F]riding on [C]dieseline dreams
Down [F]a highway that runs
through his [G]mind
Behind the [F]wheel of the biggest
rig [C]he's ever [F]seen
[C]Riding [G]on [C]dieseline dreams[F][C][G]
[C]While my boy's [Em]dozin'
the [Am]memories flood in
And I'm [F]back in the cabin
with my [G]Dad again
[C]Tellin' my[Em]self how I'll [Am]be just like him
It [F]don't seem all that long [G]ago
Yet [C]here's my own [G]son
[Am]thinkin' the same
[F]Itchin' to get himself into [G]the game
He [C]won't under[Em]stand
when I [Am]try to explain
Son [F]it's not what it used to [G]be[Em]
'Cause [G]he's [F]riding on
dies[C]eline dreams
Down a [F]highway that runs
through his [G]mind
Behind the [F]wheel of the biggest
rig [C]he's ever [F]seen
[C]Riding [G]on [C]dieseline dreams
[G]Behind the [F]wheel of the biggest
rig [C]he's ever [F]seen
[C]Riding [G]on dies[C]eline dreams

[Outro 1]
