COAST TO COAST

Words and music by Lachlan Irvine, 2021.

[G]///

[G] On the way from coast to coast, [C] On the way from coast to [G] coast;
[C] On the way from coast to [G] coast, I'll soon for-[D]-get we once were [G] close.

[G] When I leave the east behind, [C] When I leave the east be-[G]-hind;
[C] When I leave the east be-[G]-hind, you'll soon be [D] fading from my [G] mind.

[G] Once I cross the Great Divide, [C] Once I cross the Great Di-[G]-vide;
[C] Once I cross the Great Di-[G]-vide, I'll lose the [D] ache I feel in-[G]-side.

[G] When I go through Broken Hill, [C] When I go through Broken [G] Hill;
[C] When I go through Broken [G] Hill, I won't [D] think about you [G] still.

[G] Once I'm past the Flinders Range, [C] Once I'm past the Flinders [G] Range;
[C] Once I'm past the Flinders [D] Range, I'll be [D] ready for a [G] change.

[G] All across the Nullabor, [C] All across the Nulla-[G]-bor;
[C] All across the Nulla-[G]-bor, I won't [D] need you any [G] more.

[G] When I make it into Eucla, [C] When I make it into [G] Eucla;
[C] When I make it into [G] Eucla, I won't be [D] wondering where you [G] are.

[G] Soon I'll be in Southern Cross, [C] Soon I’ll be in Southern [G] Cross;
[C] Soon I'll be in Southern [G] and I won't be [D] grieving for my [G] loss.

[G] When I reach the western shore, [C] When I reach the western [G] Shore;
[C] When I reach the western [G] shore, I'll be over [D] you, right to the [G] core.

[G] All the way from coast to coast, [C] All the way from coast to [G] coast;
[C] All the way from coast to [G] coast, I will for-[D]-get we once were [G] close.

[C]/[D]/[G]
