Here's my dad Slim Dusty singing the Joy [Eb] McKean
classic Lights on the Hill.
Oh yeah, it's a long straight road and the engine is deep
[Ab] I can't help thinking of a good night's sleep [Bb] and the long long roads of my life
are a-calling [Eb] me
These ruffled hands are glued to the wheel
[Ab] My eyes full of sand from the way they feel
[Bb] And the lights coming over the hill are a [Eb]-blinding me
It's a long tough haul from way down south
[Ab] A man's gotta find a little bread for his mouth
[Bb] And a home for a girl as sweet as my honey [Eb] can be
So it's down through the gears she's a-starting to pulse
[Ab] The gauge on the tank is a-showing me a pull
[Bb] And the lights coming over the hill are a-blinding [Eb] me
There's [Bb] rain on the road, I can feel the load
[Eb] Start a-shifting in a dance
[A] [Bb] Too late I see the posts and I haven't got a ghost [Eb] of a chance
Oh no, the windscreen wipers are a-beating in time
[Ab] The song they sing is a part of my mind
[Bb] And I can't believe it's really happening [Eb] to me
Oh bottom over the edge and down the mountainside
[Ab] I know they'll tell about the night I died [Bb] in the rain
When the lights on the hill were a-blinding [Eb] me
[Ab] [Bb]

Oh bottom over the edge and down the mountainside
[Ab] I know they'll tell about the night I [Bb] died in the rain
When the lights on the hill were a [Eb]-blinding me
In [Bb] the rain when the lights on the hill were a [Eb]-blinding me
