A song you might sing around a campfire if the next morning you’re planning to drive your war rig right through the middle of the Immortan’s army to try to take his stronghold.
I filked this for Wasteland campfire singing and then figured I’d record it in case people wanted to learn it beforehand. So here you go. My singing voice isn’t great and kind of shaky, but I’m still pleased with how this turned out
mad max
Heart Like an Axle – Leslie Fish
Heart like an axle, bounded by your wheels
Rolling down the endless blacktop road
Stripping gears and losing, with every mile that falls
How long can you keep dragging that load
Firestorm is basically a concept album about the apocalypse, but this song in particular is almost certainly about Mad Max. “Heart Like an Axle,” by Leslie Fish.
MAD MAX: FURY ROAD SONG – ROAD RAGE By Miracle Of Sound
I’m just gonna link this because I can’t get over this song. It’s SO GOOD.
The lyrics just kill me. And calling the trio of Immortan Joe – The People Eater – The Bullet Farmer “the Cerberus”? Flipping genius and I cannot get over it.HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO EPIC!!
Lovely Day – PhemieC
A short (sorta spoilery) fansong for Nux from Mad Max: Fury Road. <3
Tried to make it sort of raw and harsh, but also gentle, to suit the character.

Walkabout – Julia Ecklar
“Walkabout,” by Julia Ecklar
Thanks to animatedamerican for helping me parse the lyrics. The chords are my attempt at transcription, and I’m not at all sure about them. I think Ecklar has it capoed to something silly like F# minor, which didn’t help.
Am
You’re different than them, Max
C
You give their heroes all back
Am
You find the truth inside the bronze
C
That forge the brand new tool
Am
But our lot in life is to live
C
To forget and never forgive
Em Bm
And I’ve found I’m no exception to the rule
I’ve long outlived that crap, mate
Seen the difference one man can’t make
Seen the truth behind the smoke that stains
Beneath the blood that pools
And my trust in truth has hit dirt
I’m so tired now I can’t hurt
This hero’s not so different, not so cool
Am
I’ve grown cruel
Dm Am
So show me what’s so different about one sad and frightened man
Dm Em
And find me one hero in this wasted, withered land
Am
No exceptions to the rule that says that heroes suffer best
Em Am
Well who suffers for the heroes who have suffered for the rest
I’m the first to say Fate owed us
It’s a shame that no one told us
That once Fate has dealt her hand in spades
You might as well just fold
Now I walk the dismal highways
And deal with the long hours my way
Forgive me if they’ve made me harsh and cold
No one mourns the lonely hero
No one sees me off when I go
No one limps beside the fighting cock
Who’s been both bought and sold
And the world turns up her dead eyes
On the pain the trust and the lies
Are there no more heroes left to help keep hold?
I’m so old
So show me what’s so different about one sad and frightened man
And find me one hero in this wasted, withered land
No exception to the rule that says that heroes suffer best
Well who suffers for the heroes who have suffered for the rest?
