Slim Dusty – Things Are Not The Same On The Land (Guitar)

           E                     A           E
There's no movement today at the station out back

       E                        B7
Just a man with his head in his hands

       E                      A            E
He'll  soon walk away just the shirt on his back

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land

    E                    A               E
His world floats away as tears flood his eyes

       E                       B7
Broken dreams and disappearing plans

    E                           A          E
The rain will be too late if it waits 'til July

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land

  A                      E
Remember the day and the simple country way

       E                               B7
When a man who wouldn't work was not a man

            A
But you can never go back

            E        C#m
Life's just not like that

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land

      E                          A           E
We'll soon see the day when the tough won't survive

       E                     B7
And we wonder if our leaders understand

    E                          A             E
The promise of a rainbow won't feed a hungry child

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land

  A                      E
Remember the day and the simple country way

       E                               B7
When a man who wouldn't work was not a man

            A
But you can never go back

            E        C#m
Life's just not like that

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land

           A
No, you can never go back

            E        C#m
Life's just not like that

A                  B7          E
Things are not the same on the land
