E5                 A5 C5 G5  
He was alone of his people  
     E5                   A5 C5   G5  
In a Melbourne hotel on a Friday night  
        E5                 A5 C5 G5  
He was alone of his people  
            E5                    A5      C5 G5  
But he just sat on his own he was feeling alright  
         E5                   A5 C5 G5  
From the west coast of Africa  
        E5                  A5 C5 G5  
Seeking knowledge he'd come  
         E5                  A5 C5 G5  
He was a student of medicine  
         E5                    A5 C5 G5  
He stuck out like a sore thumb  
 

       B5                    C5 
He was alone of his people, alone of his race  
 B5                   C5                         E5    A5 C5 
Alone of his people, alone in a strange strange place  
G5               E5    A5 C5 G5  
Strange strange place 
 

          E5                    A5 C5 G5  
Then they burst in like thunder  
          E5                   A5 C5 G5  
They were chanting their lines  
          E5                    A5 C5 G5  
They wore haircuts from Britain  
          E5                   A5 C5 G5  
They wore boots just like mine  
          E5              A5 C5 G5  
And their blood it was up  
       E5                   A5 C5 G5  
As the beers they went down  
       E5              A5 C5 G5  
It was six against one  
         E5                A5 C5 G5  
It was a night on the town  
 

       B5                    C5 
He was alone of his people, alone of his race  
 B5                   C5                  
Alone of his people, alone in a strange place  
 B5                  C5               B5 
Alone to the blows, alone to the ravages 
        C5              E5  A5 C5 G5 
He was alone among savages 
 

         E5                   A5 C5 G5  
Now next day in the newspaper  
           E5             A5 C5 G5  
This young man he replied  
        E5                A5 C5 G5  
Said he could not believe  
          E5            A5 C5 G5  
All their hatred inside  
           E5                     A5 C5 G5  
Though the wounds would soon heal  
        E5              A5 C5 G5  
Well it was no disgrace  
             E5              A5 C5 G5  
And he would not soon forget  
    E5                  A5 C5 G5  
The looks on their face  
           E5              A5 C5 G5  
And I will not soon forget  
       E5                A5 C5 G5  
All my feelings of shame  
            E5                A5 C5 G5  
So will you tell me Ron Casey  
        E5               A5 C5 G5  
Tell me who is to blame?  
             E5                   A5 C5 G5  
And will you tell me Bruce Ruxton  
            E5                      A5 C5 G5  
Is this the country You fought for?  
       E5              A5 C5 G5  
Was it six against one  
        E5                    A5 C5 G5  
The way you won that old war?
