Chords

strum Em There's a road train going nowhere Roads are cut, lines are down We'll be staying at the Roma bar Till that monsoon passes on
Em                                           G     A    Em
The backbone of this country's broken

Em                                           G     A    Em
The land is cracked and the land is sore

Em                                           G     A    Em
Farmers are hanging on by their fingertips

Em                                           D
We cursed and stumbled across that shore
[Chorus]
G      Dm
I hear much support for the monarchy

G          Dm              F
I hear the Union Jack's to remain,

G     Dm
I see Namatjira in custody

Am    Em             C
I see Truganini's in chains

Em
And the world won't stand still 2x

Em                                           G     A    Em
Blue collar work it don't get you nowhere

Em                                           G     A    Em
You just go round and round in debt

Em                                           G     A    Em
Somebody's got you on that treadmill, mate

Em                                           D
And I hope you're not beaten yet
[Chorus]
G      Dm
I hear much support for the monarchy

G          Dm              F
I hear the Union Jack's to remain,

G     Dm
I see Namatjira in custody

Am    Em             C
I see Truganini's in chains
[Chorus]
G      Dm
I hear much support for the monarchy

G          Dm              F
I hear the Union Jack's to remain,

G     Dm
I see Namatjira in custody

Am    Em             C
I see Truganini's in chains
strum Em And the world won't stand still 3x
