New England Highway

 B                           E
I've travelled across the country
     A             B
On every beaten track
                              E
From the sugar cane to the Nullabor Plain
           A                 B
And I've been to Burke and back
                A   B         E
But there's nothing I like better
  A           B        E
Just before Australia Day
        A              B             E      A E
Than heading down the New England Highway

[Chorus]
E              E  (3rd FD T)
Got my boots on, got my hat on
         G#m             A
Got my old guitar and a new song
    E                     B
For a week I'll be where I belong
          E               E
With the big stars, Golden Guitars
  G#m                    A
Dream will be ours some day
 E            A       B     E     A E
Cruising the New England Highway

[Verse 2]
 B                           E
They'll be busking down on Peel Street
 A                    B
Looking for a lucky break
                               E
There's the chook man and the one man band
      A                      B
And Slim Dusty's in the Cavalcade
          A     B       E
There's nothing I like better
 A           B         E
Just before Australia Day
        A              B           E        A E
Than heading down the New England Highway


[Chorus]
 E              E (3rd FD T)
Got my boots on, got my hat on
         G#m             A
Got my old guitar and a new song
    E                     B
For a week I'll be where I belong
          E               E
With the big stars, Golden Guitars
  G#m                    A
Dream will be ours some day
 E            A       B     E     A E
Cruising the New England Highway

 E              E (3rd FD T)
Got my boots on, got my hat on

Got my old guitar and a new song
