Biography:
Cold Chisel produced the canonical example of Australian pub rock, with a string of hits throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and they are acknowledged as one of the most popular and successful Australian groups of the period, although this success and acclaim was almost completely restricted to Australia.
The band formed in Adelaide in 1973 as a heavy metal band called Orange around keyboard player Don Walker and original bassist Les Kascmarek and while hard rock remained at the core of their sound Cold Chisel displayed a remarkable versatility.

FOUR WALLS (Don Walker)
A classic Aussie ballad...
C
They're calling time for exercise
E7
Round her Majesty's hotel
Am Am7
The maid'll hose the room out
F Dm
While I'm gone
C Em7
I never knew such luxury
F Bb9
Before my verdict fell
C F C F C
Four walls, washbasin, prison bed
C
Well the Bathurst riots ended
E7
When they clubbed the rebels down
Am Am7
And in every congregation
F Dm
There was silence
C Em7
You can hear the Angels singin'
F Bb9
When Christmas comes around
C F C F C
Four walls, washbasin, prison bed
Eb Bb F Dm
I love to march while some Nazi calls the time
C/G G F/G
Who'd wanna go home
C
I can't see
E7
I can't hear
Am Am7 F Dm
They've burnt out all the feeling
C Em7
I've never been so crazy
F Bb9
And it's just my second year
C F C F C
Four walls, washbasin, prison bed
