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.

MISSING A GIRL
COLD CHISEL
VERSE 1
G Bm
Looking through the tarmac rain
C G
At the rows of giant birds
G Bm
They're all feeding at the gates,
C G
There are tails from all over the world
G Bm
A million people in between
C G
Hurry by the TV screens
G C G
And I just sit here missing a girl
VERSE 2 (same chord progression)
Cuppa coffee, airport bench
Carry on, and me
Something messed up my connection
To where I want to be
Something happened, the line dropped out
Something she don't wanna talk about
And I just sit here missing a girl
VERSE 3
Overhead the speakers tell me
One more delay
I hear the numbers
But my heart's a million miles away
She made it clear we could still be friends
But she won't be there to meet me at the other end
And I just sit here missing a girl
VERSE 4
She made it clear,
I try to see it through these tears
I know it's true
And I just sit here missing a girl
OUTRO
G C G
And I just sit here missing a girl
G C G
And I just sit here missing a girl
G C G
And I just sit here missing a girl
G C G
And I just sit here missing a girl
