Outback in a tool she, we were searchin’ for the sound,
     F                                 Bflat
Everyday all through that summer, we’d rock and roll and rage,
        F                                 C
All the neighbors kept complaining but it never slowed us down

Biggest thing since Elvis, Nothin’ could go wrong
         F                              Bflat
But they took us for all our money, and Everything else we owned

So we got ourselves some Whiskey and we drank it all night long

        Bflat          F                       C       Bflat
Still I knew he always wanted to make one last journey home


       F                                 Bflat
Near a small white church in the valley, beneath a wooden bridge
F                                  C
      Patiently we waited, in that cold Alabama rain
         F                                 Bflat
Then the preacher started preachin’, about lives and about our times

The sun was slowly sinkin’ as we laid his body down
