1. Older than Kosciusko, Darwin down to Alice Springs,
A
dealers in the clearing-house, the settlements explode.
G D A G
2. High up in the homelands, miners drive across the land,
A
encounter no resistance, when the people block the road
G D A G
3. Older than Kosciusko, dry white seasons years ago
A
darkness over Charleville, the fires begin to glow
G D A G
4. Older than Kosciusko, driven back to Alice Springs,
A
endless storm sand struggle marks the spirit of the age
G D A G
5. High up in the homelands, celebration 'cross the land,
A
builds up like a cyclone, now the fires begin to rage.
G A Bb D C
No end to the hostility, now they wanna be somewhere else.
G A Bb D C
No stranger to brutality, now they'd like to be someone else.

Call off the ultimatum, no, don't turn away !
Call off the ultimatum after yesterday !
G A G A- G- A- G- A
Call off the ultimatum, no, don't turn away !
