D            D/C#         G/B                 D/A
Galleries of pink galahs, crystal nights with diamond stars
G6          D/F#      D/A  D/E  D/A       D
Apricots preserved in jars,     that's my home
D              D/C#        G/B           D/A
Land of oceans in the sun, purple hazes, river gum
G6                        D/F#       D/A  D/E  D/A         D
It breaks your heart when rain won't come,  it breaks your heart


D                    G6/D          D                  G6/D
It takes a harsh and cruel drought to sort the weaker saplings out
G6/D                                                        D
It makes room for stronger trees, maybe that's what life's about
D                  G6/D             D                         G6/D
Winter's come, the hills are brown, the shops are closed, the blinds 

are down
D            G6/D                       D
Everybody's leaving town, they can't go on





D                      D/C#            G/B                  D/A
The south wind through verandah gauze, whines and bangs the homestead 

doors
G6              D/F#  D/A   D/E      D/A    D
A mother curses dusty floors,    and feels alone
D                    D/C#              G/B                D/A
Trucks and bulk bins filled with rust, boy leaves home to make a crust
G6                  D/F#     D/A  D/E         D/A     D
A father's dreams reduced to dust,     but he must go on


D                G6/D       D                 G6/D
Tortured redgums unashamed, sunburnt country, wisely named
G6/D                                                     D
Chisel ploughed and wire claimed, but never never, never tamed

D                  D/C#        G/B              D/A
Whirlwind swirls a paper high, same old news of further dry
G6                    D/F#    D/A  D/E  D/A       D
Of broken clouds just passing by,       that's my home
D              D/C#        G/B           D/A
Land of oceans in the sun, purple hazes, river gum
G6                        D/F#       D/A  D/E  D/A         D
It breaks your heart when rain won't come,  it breaks your heart
