Tonart: Bb major
Verse 1
A
D
For nearly sixty years I've been a cocky
A
Of droughts and fires and floods
E
I've lived through plenty
A
This country's dust and mud
D
A
I've seen my tears and blood
E
A
But it's nearly over now and now I'm easy
D
I married a fine girl when I was twenty
A
But she died in given birth
A
There was no flying doctor then
D
A
Just a gentle old black djinn
E
But it's nearly over now,
D
She left me with two sons and a daughter
E
whose soil cried out for water
A
So my care was rough and ready
D
A
But they grew up fine and steady
E
But it's nearly over now,
My daughter married young
A
E
My sons lie buried by the Burma railway
A
So on this land I've made me own
D
A
I've carried on alone
E
But it's nearly over now,
City folks these days
A
They say with subsidies and all,
A
But there's no drought or starving stock
D
A
On a sewered suburban block
E
But it's nearly over now,
