G D/F# G Round half the world you've drifted C Left no wild oats unsown, G G/F# Em But now your view has shifted C D G And you think you've just come home. REPEAT INTRO And you're drowning in the sunshine As it pours down from the sky, And there's something stirring in your heart Bright colours fill your eyes. As from here to the far horizon Your beauty does unfold, And oh, you look so lovely Dressed in green and gold.

May she always be our dreamtime place Our spirit's glad release, May she always be our shelter May we always live in peace. REPEAT INTRO May we always live in peace.
