[Verse]
G C
I stood the shore at Southampton,
G D
Salt wind in my hair, a case in my hand.
G C
We were going to western Aus-tralia.
G D G C
It made me the man that I am, I am,
G D G
It made me the man that I am.
G C
On the crossing they called us the orphans,
G D
They were the family that I never had,
G C
We said goodbye at Freemantle.

And it made me the man that I am, I am,

It made me the man that I am.
