VERSE 1:

Out where the river broke

The bloodwood and the desert oak

Holden wrecks and boiling diesels

Steam in forty five degrees



     E     E 

    The time has come

E    D/E   D/E

    To say fair's fair

D/E  A/E   A/E

    To pay the rent

A/E  E     E

    To pay our share



     E     E

    The time has come

E    D/E   D/E     

    A fact's a fact

D/E  A/E   A/E

    It belongs to them

A/E       F#

    Let's give it back



CHORUS:                                               (little riff)

Em                        C                G          E -----3--3--3--5----3

How can we dance when our earth is turning            

Em                        C                D          B/D#

How do we sleep while our beds are burning

Em                        C                G          E -----3--3--3--5----3

How can we dance when our earth is turning            

Em                        C                D

How do we sleep while our beds are burning



END-CHORUS:

    Em               C

The time has come to say fairs fair

   G                    D

to pay the rent, now to pay our share



LAST VERSE:

Four wheels scare the cockatoos

>From Kintore East to Yuendemu

The western desert lives and breathes

In forty five degrees
