                C      G           Bm        C     G
It's time to go, Jenny, no need to close the door

                      C                G             Bm   C     Am

                      D               G            C      Am
You and the dust have been at war for far too many years

But now the war is over, Jenny dear

                C                       G            Bm     C     G
Remember when I brought you here, those long, bright years ago

                         C                  G             Bm      C     Am
For all that time you've been my heart, and this land has been my soul

                          D             G                     C   Am
The long, bright days are over now, but still the heart beats on

                         D
But, Jenny dear, the soul is gone

It's time to go, Jenny, drive quickly down the track

                     C             G          Bm      C     Am
We'll never see what lies ahead if we keep on looking back

                  D               G            C        Am
Behind is just an empty house, old memories and ghosts

                              D
And our small dream gathering dust
