Redgum - Diamantina Drover Chords & Tabs

Verse 1
    F            C             Dm
The faces in the photograph have faded
                         F               Bb
And I can't believe he looks so much like me
            C  Dm           Am
For it's been ten years today
         G                Dm
Since I left for Old Cork Station
        G   F    Bb                C       Dm
Sayin' I won't be back till the drovin's done

<b>Chorus

 C         Bb      F		G	Dm
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
         	       Am                Bb
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
 C        F                 Am
For the years have surely gone
          Bb                 Dm
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
   Gm   F        Bb         C	      Dm
And I won't be back till the drovin's done

Verse 2

          F             C                   Dm
Well it seems like the sun comes up each mornin'
              F             Bb
Sets me up and takes it all away
    C   Dm               Am
For the dreaming by the light
       G            Dm
Of the camp fire at night
 G    F      Bb       C       Dm
Ends with the burning by the day

                            F               Bb                    
But it's been so long it's hard to change my mind
     C   Dm               Am  
For the cattle trail goes on and on
       G               Dm     
And the fences roll forever
   G    F       Bb              C      Dm
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
