A5 D5 A5 fis D5 E5 A5

A5 D5 A5 fis A5 D5 A5 D5

 A5          D5       A5        fis
Won't you come on down the line
   D5        E5       A5
Away from barren ground
      A5     D5       A5    fis
The harlot and the autocrat
           D5           E5       A5
Are they driving you further down
E5              fis       B5        fis
The season's rhymes, they anchor me
   D5                B5
Against the raging tide


 A5        D5       A5          fis
Take you to the last wild place
   D5           E5            A5
Skin and the stars they embrace
    A5       D5       A5       fis
A caveman could a saint become
       D5        E5           A5
In a hospital ward on the Somme
E5        fis       B5        fis
We can dive into distant amoebas
      D5                       B5   fis E5 fis E5
Our wings could melt in the sun

CHORUS
        fis   E5
I can shake
        fis   G5
I can move
        fis           B5         fis  E5
But I can't live without your love
        fis   E5
I can break
       fis   G5
Over you
        fis           B5         fis    D5 fis D5 fis   E5
But I can't live without your love


A5     D5              A5    fis
Our poet Henry Lawson he named them
D5            E5       A5
The lay 'em out brigade
  A5         D5     A5        fis   A5 D5 A5 D5
Here they come there they go
A5          D5      A5      fis
Oh great god of development
        D5       E5      A5
Don't really know you yet
A5           D5          A5         fis
Coastline hosed down washed away
     D5            E5              A5
Economics, now there's nothing left
E5            fis       B5           fis
Tomorrow's child takes concrete footsteps
              D5                     B5       D5 A5 A5 E5
And they'll drink champagne or be damned


          D5         A5          E5
And the storm is breaking now
           D5         A5          E5
Yeah the storm is breaking now
          D5         A5          E5
Yes the storm is breaking now
