Tom: C
Introdução:
Am D
Have you seen the old stockman at the functions and balls
Am
He drinks while they serve him and he sleeps where he falls
D
He'll be crook sunday but he'll turn up monday
E Am
Through he wonders if one day he'll bother at all
Am F C
Cause they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
D Am
And he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
F C
And if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
E Am
And he's back he's back on the grader again
D Am F Am E Am
D
He got married young on a wing and a prayer
Am
And it promised the world but they didn't go there
D
'Cos the wet season ends and away like the damp
E Am
He shoulders his saddle and he's back in the camp
Am F C
Cause they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
D Am
And he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
F C
And if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
E Am
And he's back he's back on the grader again
D
He can't get the books cause he can't read or write
Am
And he's to old for drivin' a road train at night
D
The windmills to high and the fencings to hard
E Am
He's to proud for the garden to slow for the yard
Am F C
Cause they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
D Am
And he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
F C
And if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
E Am
And he's back he's back on the grader again
Chorus
Am F C
Cause they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
D Am
And he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
F C
And if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
E Am
And he's back he's back on the grader again
