[Intro]
C (hammer E) F G Am(hammer on) F G x3
C (hammer E) F C (hammer E) F x1
C Am F C
I met him high on a hill when I was sixteen
Am F C G
And my breath it was taken by the cold August wind
C Am F C
I left school that next summer and to Melbourne we fled
Am F G C
As the sky over Mansfield turned orange and red
C G x1
C Am F C
I asked him where he came from, he said he wasn’t quite sure
Am F C G
He said he’d moved ‘round so often, he didn’t keep track no more
C Am F C
But he said I was the reason that he could stand still
Am F G C
And he kissed me that first time on the high open hill
[Chorus]
C Am F C
See everything changes ‘cept for the sound of the rain
Am F C G
That comes down every time I see him again
C Am F C
And I wish for a moment that we could once more stand
Am Gm F
On those high open hills of our youth
G C
Me and my traveling man
C (hammer E) F C (hammer E) F x1
C Am F C
He went off to Western Australia where the pearl fishing’s good
Am F C G
He said he’d been once to Broome and there he felt understood
C Am F C
He said I’m gonna return with a fortune untold
Am F G C
So just sit tight my darling for our future to unfold
C Am F C
He came back to me to Melbourne for a week or so
Am F C G
We were lover to lover, I didn’t want him to go
C Am F C
But with a fire in his belly and a baby in mine
Am F G C
I prayed when he’d come home it would be the last time
[Chorus]
C Am F C
See everything changes ‘cept for the sound of the rain
Am F C G
That comes down every time I see him again
C Am F C
And I wish for a moment that we could once more stand
Am Gm F
On those high open hills of our youth
G C
Me and my traveling man
C (hammer E) F G Am(hammer on) F G x1
C Am F C
I got a letter from Darwin later that month
Am F C G
He said, “I’ve found myself a lover, in fact I’ve found quite a bunch
C Am F C
The last thing I want to do is to hurt you or our boy
Am F G C
But you know all I touch I go on to destroy”
C G x1
C Am F C
He sent us some money, but soon that dried up too
Am F C G
Just like the hope in my baby’s eyes blue
C Am F C
He’d sit at the window and wait every night
Am F G C
And I prayed that that bastard would do what is right
[Chorus]
C Am F C
See everything changes ‘cept for the sound of the rain
Am F C G
That comes down every time I see him again
C Am F C
And I wish for a moment that we could once more stand
Am Gm F C
On those high open hills of our youth
Am Gm F C
On those high open hills of our youth
Am Gm F
On those high open hills of our youth
G C
Me and my traveling man
C (hammer E) F G Am(hammer on) F G x3
Ooooo......
C (hammer E) F G Am(hammer on) F C x1
