A D A fis D E A
A D A fis A D A D
A D A fis
Won't you come on down the line
D E A
Away from barren ground
A D A fis
The harlot and the autocrat
D E A
Are they driving you further down
E fis H fis
The season's rhymes, they anchor me
D H
Against the raging tide
A D A fis
Take you to the last wild place
D E A
Skin and the stars they embrace
A D A fis
A caveman could a saint become
D E A
In a hospital ward on the Somme
E fis H fis
We can dive into distant amoebas
D H fis E fis E
Our wings could melt in the sun
CHORUS
fis E
I can shake
fis G
I can move
fis H fis E
But I can't live without your love
fis E
I can break
fis G
Over you
fis H fis D fis D fis E
But I can't live without your love

Our poet Henry Lawson he named them
D E A
The lay 'em out brigade
A D A fis A D A D
Here they come there they go
A D A fis
Oh great god of development
D E A
Don't really know you yet
A D A fis
Coastline hosed down washed away
D E A
Economics, now there's nothing left
E fis H fis
Tomorrow's child takes concrete footsteps
D H D A A E
And they'll drink champagne or be damned
D A E
And the storm is breaking now
D A E
Yeah the storm is breaking now
D A E
Yes the storm is breaking now
