The Backroom

D
Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll
D
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
G                                           D
There's another place, does a better job by far
D
When the moonlight hammers on the railway bridge
D
And the whole world's lookin' for a beverage
G                                                    D
And you ain't got nothin', nothin' in the boot a the car
             A                                        D
Time for the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae's tikki bar

D
When the coal-trucks settle up and down the line
D
You can wake up thinking that it's '89
G                                           D
But there's another sound, thicker than a Bolivar
D
You can hear it pumping out the roll-a-door
D
Walnut piano on a wooden floor
G                                           D
Backbeat drummer, Roy on a slide guitar
                A                                        D
Coming from the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae's tikki bar

D       D       D       D
G       G       D       D
A       A       D       D

D
When the high tide's suckin' at the old sea wall
D
And the full moon's lookin' like a mirror ball
G                                           D
Bigger than Elvis, hotter than a speedway star
D
With a wet pay packet on a midnight hand
D
They say you can win a mariachi band
         G                                    D
You can lose a girl, quicker than a coup de grace
        A                                        D
In the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae's tikki bar

D

D
I said haul that mother, haul that son
D
Haul that rubber to the end of a run
G                                    D
That ain't got ridden since between the wars
D
All hidden from the liquor laws
D
Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll
D
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
          G                                  D
There's another place, does a better job by far
           A
That's the backroom (at Dougie and Gleny Rae's
