D
November's here it's the time of the year when the heat waves are starting to dance.

Mercury rising, millibars falling, no time for a shaky romance
Am                          G                     D
Sweat on the foreheads of babies, drifting in dreamland 
                             G                        D    
While into the pindan* those old men are pounding a raindance  

D  G    D  G
Ngaba**, ngaba 

 
D
Anticipation, gunada waving goodbye to hot hungry days

Pressure down in King Sound, drifting across Roebuck Bay
Am                                  G                    D
See the lightning bolt, hear the thunder roll, she's a coming
Am                             G                       D
While into the pindan those children are dancing a raindance 

D  G   D  G   Drums Kick in
Ngaba, ngaba
Am G D   Am G D
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba

 
Am                        G                    D
Willy willy, going silly only the rainman can see 
Am                       G                  D
That eastern horizon bringing that ngaba to me  

Am G D   Am G D
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba

 
Am                            G                  D
Saturation, gunada waving goodbye to hot hungry days
Am                       G                      D
Old dogs and children dancing those heat blues away

Am G D   Am G D
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba

Am G D   Am G D
N-ga-ba, n-ga-ba
