Lights On The Hill Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]This is the one by the
great Slim Dusty.
Now Pete here used to
play with Slim Dusty.
Our drummer Pete played this
very song with Slim.
Didn't you Pete? I did indeed.
It's a long straight road
and the engine's deep
I [G]can't stop thinking about
a good night's sleep
An[D]d the l[A]ong, long roads of my life
are calling [D]me
These ruffled hands are glued to the wheel
My [G]eyes full of sand from the way they feel
[A]An d the lights coming over the hill
are blinding [D]me
It's a long,
rough haul from [Bm]way down s[D]outh
A [G]man's gotta [Bm]put a [G]bit
of [Em]food in his mouth
[D]And a [A]home for his girl
as sweet as honey can [D]be
Well, it's down to the gear
she's a -startin' to pull
The [G]gauge on the tank
is a [Em]-showin' near full
[G]And the lig[A]hts comin' over the hill
are blindin' [D]me
It's [A]rain on the roof and I can feel the
[D]load start[A]ing [D]shifting in a trance
Too [A]late to see the post and I haven't
got a ghost of a [D]chance, oh no
The wishing weapons are
[Bm]slapping in [D]time
The [G]song they sing is a [Em]part of my [D]mind
[A]That I can't believe
this is really happening to [D]me
It's over the edge and
down the [Bm]mountain[D]side
I [G]know they'll talk about
the [Em]night [G]I d[Em]ied
[A]In the rain when the lights on the hill
were blinding [D]me
Okay [G]boys[D][Em][G][A][D][A][D]
[Asus4]
[D][A][Bm][D][G][Em][G][A][D]
[A]Rain on the roof and I,
I can feel the load startin' to [D]shift and
In a trance, too [A]late to see the post
And I haven't got a ghost of a [D]chance,
no, no
Wishing wipers are [Bm]swiping [D]in time
This [G]song they sing is a [Em]part of my mind
[A]And I can't believe
this is really happening to [D]me
Well it's over the edge and
down the [Bm]mountain[D]side
I [G]know they'll talk about the [Em]night I [G]died
In the [A]rain when the lights on the hill
were blinding [D]me
In the [A]rain when the lights on the hill
were blinding [D]me
The [A]rain when the lights on the hill
were blind[D]ing me

[Outro 1]
[G][A][D]
