Chords

[Intro] Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm Bm [Verse 1]
Bm
This is not your place

Bm
To spread your hate

Bm
And your shotgun comments

Bm
A public holiday

Bm
Why do you need to be reminded

Bm
Who was here first?

Bm
'Cause it always was

Bm
And it always will be
[Pre-Chorus]
F#                              G
But you just wanna argue and dispute the facts

       F#                     G
You're spitting out words you can't take back

    F#                    G           F#
The train of progress has run off the tracks
[Chorus]
    Bm
Our history's burning, burning away

    Em
The pages are turning day after day

    C
For fucks sake, don't let it get in the way

   A                   F#
Of one more vote on election day

   Bm
So why should I care what the socials say?

    Em
The blind leading the blind, this is not the way

    C
But you'll never understand their pain

    A
Too busy getting drunk on your

F#         Em
Public holiday

Bm
See the white crosses

Bm
Of a fallen dream

Bm
'Cause the ears don't listen

Bm
If the eyes don't see

Bm
Stop forgetting to remember

Bm
Who was here first

Bm
Since the beginning of time

Bm
Been walking on this dirt
[Pre-Chorus]
F#                        G
And it's not that hard to fix the mistakes

   F#                    G
To stand in their shoes, see it their way

F#m                      G      F#
We owe it to our kids to educate
[Chorus]
    Bm
Our history's burning, burning away

    Em
The pages are turning day after day

    C
For fucks sake, don't let it get in the way

   A                   F#
Of one more vote on election day

   Bm
So change it up, change it for another day

    Em
There's 364 other days

    C
But you'll never understand their pain

    A
Too busy with your manufactured

F#         Em Em Em Em

Australian day

            Bm
The darkest day
