(Bassline written for normal guitar)
VERSE 1: (Starts with Em strum on guitar)
There's a road train going nowhere
Roads are cut, lines are down
We'll be staying at the Roma bar
Till that monsoon passes on
VERSE 2: (Starts with Em strum on guitar)
The backbone of this country's broken G A G A Em
The land is cracked and the land is sore G A G A Em
Farmers are hanging on by their fingertips G A G A Em
We cursed and stumbled across that shore D
CHORUS:
G Dm
I hear much support for the monarchy
G Dm F
I hear the Union Jack's to remain,
G Dm
I see Namatjira in custody
Am Em |C C C C |C C D D|
I see Truganini's in chains
END-CHORUS: (with bassline and Guitar 2 from RIFF 1)
And the world won't stand still
VERSE 3: (Starts with Em strum on guitar)
(Also play RIFF 1, both guitars over top)
Blue collar work it don't get you nowhere G A G A Em
You just go round and round in debt G A G A Em
Somebody's got you on that treadmill, mate G A G A Em
And I hope you're not beaten yet D
FINAL CHORUS:
I hear much support for the monarchy
I see the Union Jack in flames, let it burn
I see Namatjira with dignity
I see Truganini's in chains
OUTRO:
(with bass, drums)
And the world won't stand still
(with bass, drums, guitar 2 - riff 1)
And the world won't stand still
(with bass, drums, both guitars - riff 1)
And the world won't stand still
