Nullarbor Song

Capo II



Intro: G D Em C

G

When the fire burns out here

D

It’s brighter than the city lights

Em C

Warmer than a heart of gold

G D

And dingos howl just to break the silence

Em C

The sun comes up just to break the cold

G D

Last night I woke with the stars looking back at me

Em C

Swallowing the sky

G D

I felt no anger I felt no shame

Em C

I felt no reason to cry



D G

If I'm not here in themorning

D G

I'll cry a river of tears

D

I'll learn to live in a new town

C G

But my heart is staying here



G D Em C

G D Em C



G D

When it's quiet out here a hundred miles away

Em C

You can hear the train on the line

G D

The whistle blows just to break the silence

Em C

I wave just to break the time

G D

I close my eyes, I think of runnin' water

Em C

I think of runnin' away

G D

But the fires burnt to ashes and it's darker than before

Em C

But I can see as clear as day



D G

If I'm not here in themorning

D G

I'll cry a river of tears

D

I'll learn to live in a new town

C G

But my heart is staying here

D

I'll learn to live in a new town

C G

But my heart is staying here
