2.I hear a train tonight rolling on out of the gloom
I got a ride tonight if I want it I gotta catch it soon
Well I pray you don't wake and see me leave the room
Or your eyes will follow follow me with doom
You're so beautiful when you're sleeping
It's hard to leave you
3.Inst.
4.I can see the light shining from out of beyond
You're asleep at my side just like you've always done
If I steal this night oh baby what'll I become
When the cold grey light of morning finds me gone
You're so beautiful when you're sleeping
It's hard to leave you but it's harder to stay

2.I see cars cruising by
People going out for a good time
I see planes in the sky
I'm wondering where you are tonight
If you appeared before me now
I wouldn't know what to do I'd just break down
Well I pray we can work it out
But something tells me it's changed somehow
This time
3.I'm walking along around the bay
I pass the spot where we once lay
I'm trying to find you some way
But I don't wanna see what can't be saved
I didn't know what your love was all about
Till I met you and you showed me how
Well I pray we can work it out
But something tells me it's changed somehow
This time

2.The photos of yourself you left them on the shelf
I know you didn't want them they're for me to think about
Could there be something else you might have left behind
Something you might be needing at some time
For I wish I could've held you a little longer than I did
'Till the cooling winds of autumn blow out here again
3.The weeks pass by so slowly and the months turn into years
It'll still be from you that I long to hear
When I think of how we parted I still can't work out why
We loved each other hard enough you'd think we'd be alright
Well have you fund a place where quiet waters dwell
And do the cooling winds of autumn blow out there as well

2.I've held the wheel on stormy nights
I've steered my way through city lights
I've driven with rage and I've driven with tears
And I've changed my wheels every year
Well my driving days are over now
I've seen the bush I've seen the towns
I've done more miles than I care about
My driving days are over now
3.A young man told me the other night
He was going out west he had a job in a mine
He said why don't you come along for the ride
It'd do you good open your eyes
4.I said I've done that trip already son
I've seen that country I know where you run
I followed tha track to the setting sun
You just take care which road you're on
For my driving days are over now
I've left the road I've settled down
I've done more miles than I care about
My driving days are over now
5.I met a girl she asked me to come
Along with her on an outback run
She had a pretty face and golden hair
She said she was going up north somewhere
6.Well I said thanks for the offer but I really can't go
You remind me of someone I used to know
And I've already been down that road
So I guess you better just go alone
My driving days are over now
Don't ask me to come don't tell me how
I've done more miles than I care about
My driving days are over now
My driving days are done
My driving days are gone

Good Light In Broome

1.I was hanging round in

Sydney and I was going down I'd done too many parties my money was runnin'
|C |Am |G |F |C |Am |
out Then I met an old man who lived all a-lone He had two dogs for

company and that's all he owned He was saving his pension for a one way

2.I went out to Queensland working in the sheds
Met a girl in Quilpie and we got wed
Moved up to the Gulf had our first born
We were livin' in a caravan I was working on the prawns
I came home from a stormy sea
She'd up and gone left a note for me
On it she wrote "I'm sick of you"
That's when I felt there's good light in Broome
3.I headed down south couldn't take the hint
Saw a lot of pubs had a lot to drink
I was running pretty ragged I didn't hardly eat
I was thinking about her and what she did to me
There was a road and a hair-pin bend
Then I woke up in a hospital bed
"How do you feel?" said a voice in the gloom
I gave the answer "There's good light in Broome"
4.I went trucking out of Melbourne back and forwards to Perth
It didn't take long and it seemed like a curse
My eyes were on the road but my mind was somewhere else
When I pulled in to a Nullarbor roadhouse
Waitress came over and she's there looking at me
She asked me how I was I said "bit ordinary"
She said "I thought that might be your tune"
I said "don't tell me there's good light in Broome"
5.Well when I get to Cable Beach
I'll fall right out of the truck and into the sea
With my clothes still on I'll plunge under the waves
And all the dirt will drain away
And just like Bunjil I'll get two dogs
And every evening I'll walk them along
On the edge of the country take in the view
Just like I heard there's good light in Broome

2.The touch of a child kept me sane
Through all the dark years I took her rage
For being abandoned and afraid
Falling prey to evil ways
I thought love would be a cure
But I was a fool to endure
For I'd be free free as a bird
If I could get the wings to work
3.Well I don't mean to sound bitter
For in truth I won't forget her
All the suffering and the effort
Never meant we'd be together
And the only thing to be learned
Is how much pain we can burn
For I'd be free as a bird
If I could get the wings to work

Sometimes I feel I don't care about tomorrow
And sometimes I feel like I'm living in a stricken land
And there's not many understand
I see a nation of rabble and thieves consumed by greed and ignorance
I see lives of not much consequence caught up in their own publicity
Well it's one step forward and two steps back
How we gonna get anywhere

4.Sometimes I feel like walking out in the desert
Sometimes I feel like turning my back forever
And sometimes I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door
And there's no answer any more
For a man to live with honour and dignity
He has to have his rights respected
Well how can he get that when his country rejects him
Where the hell does he start
When there are no leader but there's a lot of sheep
The great south land is getting bare
Well how did it get there

2.The life I had before seems like a bad dream
Last night in the mountains I had the deepest sleep
And I'd never have woken up again
'cept the birds were singing the morning light
Now I'm in no hurry to be anywhere tonight
3.I met a woman today but we didn't hardly speak
The way she held herself I sensed a bad relationship
Just like a wounded bird she wasn't able to fly
Well I'm in no hurry to be anywhere tonight
4.Wish I could stay in the mountains and wait for Mohammed or someone
But I'll have to leave soon and go back where I'm from
And I don't know when I'll return there if there'll be anything left to find
So I'm in no hurry to be anywhere tonight
To be anywhere tonight
