B (chugging)
A E
Older Than Kosciusko
Darwin down to Alice Springs
B
Dealers in the clearing-house
The Settlements explode
A E
High up in the homelands
miners drive across the land
B
Encounter no resistance
when the people block the road
A E
Older than Kosciusko
dry white seasons years ago
B
darkness over Charleville
the fires Begin to glow
Older than Kosciusko
Driven back to Alice Springs
Endless Storm & Struggle
Marks the spirit of the age
High up in the homelands
Celebration 'cross the land
Builds up like a cyclone
Now the fires begin to rage
A B
No end the the Hostility
C#m E D D/E D/F# D/G
now they wanna be somewhere else
A B
No stranger to brutality
C#m E D D/E D/F# D/G
now they'd like to be someone else
A E

B
Call of the ultimanum
B
No don't turn away ...etc

| like most of midnight oil's songs, i'm guessing it has something to do with the plight of the aboriginies of austrailia. arguably their best song. they play it great live. | |
