Verse 1

         D
Got from Campbell Town to Yass
    E7
On a borrowed tank of gas
      G              A7                      D
And I never missed a pot hole on the trail
         E7
But what really drove the nails
        G          A7        D
Was the songs they played as I drove away

Verse 2

         D
I wanted rockn?nroll all night
   E7                    
Or something to make the night seem
     G                          A7
Like it was gonna end there was something to get to 
D
Up around the bend
           E7
I hope you out drink with friends   
  G    A7   D
Tonight, as I drive away

Chorus

  A                         D
Tonight a radio jockey tried to kill me
A                                       D                      
Every song was like a dull punch in the rain
     Bm                                E7
It?s only two-seventy miles to my temporary
                              A
O that guy he?s gonna make me pay

Verse 3

      D                          E7   
After Flame Trees and Ka San and Solitary Man
G                  A7                     D       
Long time listener first time caller just won a thousand clams
         E7 
Buy some new clothes for the kids
G            A7             D
O he?s gonna make me pay as I drive away

Chrous

  A                         D          
Tonight a radio jockey tried to kill me
A                                       D
Every song was like a dull punch in the rain
     Bm                     E7 
It?s only 100 mile to my temporary
                                   A
O that f**ker?s he?s gonna make me pay

Outro

  D                      E7   
I know it?s late, is it ok to call and say
              G           A7                   D            Gadd6/G#
You just wont believe the songs they played as I drive away
              G           A7                   D            Gadd6/G#
You just wont believe the songs they played as I drive away
         G             A7           D            
I wish I brought a tape, tonight as I drive away
