Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Verse 1]
D           C        G     D     C          G
Winter time dad came home, dirty diesel and rust
D      C           G         D       C           G
Pearly whites like diamonds, smiling through the dust
D     C          G            D      C      G
Yummy mutton and pumpkin for a hungry gutted crew
D       C            G                D      C         G
We knew mum loved us all to death and we all loved her too

[Verse 2]
       D                C          G                   D         C        G
Well I couldn't wait to walk in my old man's shoes and what more could I ask?
   D        C       G                  D        C       G
To head off with my biscuit tin, black tea in a thermos flask
   D        C        G                      D        C   G
To learn to plough a real straight line and learn to be alone
   D      C         G             D        C     G    D   C   G
In ever diminishing circles solve problems on my own

[Bridge]
    Em      C       D         Em        C     D
Now it's considered normal to pass your acres down
G             C        Em                C               D
But if you've got more children well you try to buy more ground
       Em     C        D             Em        C      D
So you borrow heaps of money just to give your kids a go
Em    C          D        C         D          C       G
After all that's said and done, you taught 'em all you know

[Solo]
Em   C   D
Em   C   D
G    C   Em    C
C        D
Em   C   D
Em   C   D

Em    C          D        C         D          C       G
After all that's said and done, you taught 'em all you know

[Verse 3]
    D          C       G                D         C      G
Now there were days we nearly sold with frost and then a drought
D      C       G                 D        C          G
Easier ways to make a quid would sort the young ones out
     D      C           G               D     C        G
They say it builds your character, good women and good men
    D     C              G                   D      C    G
Who turn around when the crop has failed and sow it all again

[Verse 4]
   D       C         G          D        C       G
So hold on tight you cockies, I know the feeling well
   D            C        G                      D      C     G
If you couldn't save the family farm then you'd rather go to hell
   D        C          G          D        C         G
No one will share your burden, no one will share the blame
       D          C          G              D  C    G
And my heart goes out to the families of the farming game

[Solo]
D   C   G
D   C   G

[Outro]
       D          C          G              D  C         G
Yes my heart goes out to the families of the farming game
