G5              E5             C5        C5        A5    
>From St. Kilda to King's Cross is thirteen hours on a bus

G5                E5                C5        C5
I press my face against the glass and watch the white lines

A5              
rushing past

C5                 D5            E5
And all around me felt like all inside me

      A5         C5              D5          
And my body left me and my soul went running

G5            E5             C5        C5     A5          
Have you ever seen king's Cross when the rain is falling soft

G5                E5           C5      C5      A5          
I came in on the evening bus from Oxford Street I cut across

C5               D5                  
And if the rain don't fall too hard

E5                   A5            
Everything shines just like a postcard

C5               D5                G5        
Everything goes on just the same


C5           C5             G5                 
Fairweather friends are the hungriest friends

C5                           E5             G5     
I keep my mouth well shut, I cross their open hands

C5    D5     E5   A5   C5    D5    

G5                E5            C5      C5   A5          
I want to see the sun go down from St. Kilda esplanade

G5                    E5           C5        C5        A5        
Where the beach needs reconstruction, where the palm trees have it hard

C5                  D5
I'd give you all of Sydney Harbour

E5          A5           
All that land, all that water,

C5               D5           
for that one sweet promenade.

C5                 D5
I'd give you all of Sydney Harbour

E5          A5            
All that land, all that water,

C5                 D5           
for that one sweet promenade.
