Chords

                                 D      G
Now I could spend my holidays on videos galore

   C                        D         G
Or lie on the beach getting sorry and sore

   Em               C             D               G
Or I could sail the ocean and see another foreign shore

       Em             C            D               G      D G
Well I took my little kelpie and I sailed the nullabor

G                                 D         G
And I saw the colour changes from Albany to Broome

C                        D             G
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune

Em  D           C
Wildflowers in bloom

Em                  C                  D          G     D G
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom

G                         D
And saw the giant Karri's oh

    C        D         G
You couldn't paint the view

Em           D             C
Amazing what cross cut can do

Em                  C        D             G     D G
I would've liked to be there before, would you?

G                                D
And I heard about the whales and cried

C    D         G
Many thousands died

            Em       D       C
But they're swimming back to sing

Em              C            D         G      D G
I bet you never heard a more beautiful thing

G                                   D
And through the Swan Valley there's Banksias

    C        D        G        
And warriors making a stand

     Em       D         C
Yeah look out for Black Boys

Em             C               D        G     D G
Like guardians protecting this dear old land

G                   D
Spinefex and Snappy Gums

C    D          G
Hazy green blue grey

Em        D       C
You gotta go that way

Em                C              D        G   D G
There nearly half Australia over there in WA

G                                    D         G
Well I saw the colours changing from Albany to Broome

C                        D             G
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune

Em  D          C
Wildflowers in bloom

Em                  C                  D     G          D G
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom

G                                   D
So you could spend your holidays on videos

C             D             G
Or lie on the beach getting sore

Em           D        C
Or you could sail the ocean

Em                      C             D        G
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor

Em                      C             D        G
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor, hey!
