1. The boom time it is over
   Hmi                        D
   A ghost town is all that's left here
   A                C#mi
   The gold rush it is over
   Hmi                 D        E
   And depression days draw near
   A             C#mi
   Tonight after sundown
   Hmi                  D
   I'm going to pack my case
   A           C#mi
   I leave without a sound
        Hmi            D    E
   Disappear without a trace

   A    F#mi      D         Hmi E
R: Oooo I'm going southbound,
   Oooo I'm going southbound

A C#mi Hmi D  A C#mi Hmi D

2. Drifting like a drover
   Chasing my career
   From the ships docked in the harbour
   New horizons will appear
   Tumbling with the tumbleweed
   Down the open road
   Taking only what I need
   Before my head explodes

R: Oooo I'm going southbound...

A C#mi Hmi D  A C#mi Hmi D

R: Oooo I'm going southbound...

3. Hey, you're not getting any younger
   The wild west has already been won
   Northern lights are growing colder
   And the old eastern ways are gone
   So tonight after sundown
   You must go from this place
   Without a tear, without a frown
   Disappear without a trace

R: Oooo I'm going southbound...
