Tonart: D major
Verse 1
D
A
D
I came in from the station run
A
to cash me sheer in check
But after boozin' for a week,
We drank the inner circle rum
A
and stubbies by the score
And I tell you boys,
I had a dream I'd never had before
D
I met some really diggin' blokes
A
from the days now long ago
There was Henry Lawson,
Clancy and Will Ogleby, you know
D
There was Banjo with old Sweeney
A
and his bottle full of beer
And the kid from Jimbarella
D
was about to duff a steer
They came back with
me to my camp
A
and spotted by the fire
And started telling yarns
D
the like to make a man a liar
They told of riding grumpies
A
and duffing in the scrub
And how Billy Frank the Shearer
They talked about the toughest man
And the way he wrecked
the barbershop,
D
the man from Mayan Bark
And the difference in the city
For city layers don't hang around,
D
A
D
nor the leaders of the bush
There was Adam, Lindsay Gordon,
A
and Billy White to write
A ballad of the greatest mob
to gather in one night
D
Then Henry stopped his drinkin'
A
and he asked for a little shush
As he started off a poem
D
he had written about the bush
Well, party went till mornin' light
A
Then the Yankee Texas Jack
Tried to ride old Curio
But finished on his back
D
He was thrown so high he split his pants
A
You shoulda seen the fear
As Curio just bucked him
out of his dirty underwear
really diggin'
A
These mates up long ago
They carried swags from Camerwheel
A
Across the dusty, treks I vividly recall
They were heading up to Queensland,
A
Well, I woke up in the morning sun
with a hammer in me head
I looked around for my old mates,
but all I saw instead
D
Was a stack of empty studies,
A
not a one with any grog
Not one cent in me pocket,
D
and not a hair from any dog
Oh, I came in from the station run
A
to cash me sheer in check
But out of prison for a week
We drank the inner circle rum
A
and stubbies by the score
And I tell you boys, I had a dream
I'd never had before
