[Bm] [G] [E]
[Em] I'm going to sing a song called, I'm Going to Sing a Song.
Wake up in the cold sweat, nightmare by my bed.
Waiting for riders, wandering through my head.
Cause [A] I'm a lorry from home, on the highway too long.
Got [G] road dust in my mouth, I [F#m] need to air bounce out.
[Em] And get back to the river.
Back to [E] the river.
[C#] Oh, [Em] back to the river.
Back to the [C#] river.
Take my [D] time, [Em] so I can think about the little ones.
Keep them in my heart.

[D] Party [Em] ain't no good when we're apart.

Oh, [E] back to the river, [G] to take my time.

[Em] Mine may be crazy, [E] but that's alright.
[Em] Long as I have some peace of mind.
To the river, to take my time.
When [A] there's a campfire going, and warm breezes blowing.
