F 	  	  	      C 
I was born and raised in the country 
      F 	  	  	  	     C 
Had a family who beleived in what I did 
           F 	  	  	  	     C 
Out on the road I feel a million miles from nowhere 
 	  	  	    G                C 
Theres a love I know thats waiting home for me. 
 
  
             F                          C 
Don't get me wrong I love the life of a nomad 
            F 	  	  	  	     C 
seeing this land has always been a dream of mine 
         F                                  C 
With the southern cross thats shining right above me 
 	  	  	        G            C 
leads the way all through this midnight paradise 
 
CHORUS: 
C 
Can you feel the home fires burning 
         G                       C 
Have you rode that white line my way 
 	 F 	  	     C 
Can you feel the home fires burning 
G                              C 
home town folks are not to far away 
 
  
 
  
I'm a country girl just trying to earn a dollar 
I don't often bludge on life from no one 
just the chance to roam this land and live in freedom 
be with you for all my days to come 
 
  
 
Chorus: 	   
 
Can you feel the home fires burning 
Have you rode that white line my way 
        G                   D 
Can you feel the home fires Burning 
A7                             D 
home town folks are not to far away 
A7                             D 
home town folks are not to far away
