VERSE 1:
Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees
E5 E5
The time has come
E5 D5 D5
To say fair's fair
D5 A5 A5
To pay the rent
A5 E5 E5
To pay our share
E5 E5
The time has come
E5 D5 D5
A fact's a fact
D5 A5 A5
It belongs to them
A5 F#5
Let's give it back
CHORUS: (little riff)
E5 C5 G5 E -----3--3--3--5----3
How can we dance when our earth is turning
E5 C5 D5 B5
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
E5 C5 G5 E -----3--3--3--5----3
How can we dance when our earth is turning
E5 C5 D5
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
END-CHORUS:
E5 C5
The time has come to say fairs fair
G5 D5
to pay the rent, now to pay our share
LAST VERSE:
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes
In forty five degrees
