D 057700

A 002200

Out where the river broke. The bloodwood and the desert oak.

Holden wrecks and boiling diesels. Steam in forty five degrees.

Chorus1

The E time has come. To D say fair's fair. To A pay the rent. To E pay our share.

The E time has come. A D fact’s a fact. It A belongs to them. Let's E+2 (F#) give it back. E E+3 E+5

Chorus2

Em How can we dance when our C earth is turning. G  E| 3 5 7

Em How do we sleep while our C beds are burning. D xxx7\2xx (X2)

Four wheels scare the cockatoos. From Kintore East to Yuendemu.

The western desert lives and breathe. In forty five degrees.

Chorus 1 & 2

The Em time has come. To C say fair's fair. To G pay the rent. To D pay our share.

The Em time has come. A C fact’s a fact. It G belongs to them. We’re going to D give it back.
