Music and Words: (S Pigram/A, D, G, P, S Pigram, P Mamid)
[Verse 1]
FWhen you're drifting on the ocean
and the sBbea is a perfect bFlue
But those storm clouds on the horizon
are keeping you trBbue to who are yFou
[Chorus]
So taDmke me away 'cross the sFpinifex plains
where the tBbrue mirage never eFnds
And the sDmmell of the rain is a lFong way away
lay me Gmdown on my dBbry river bFed
[Verse 2]
Don't have no white picket fence,
don't have no green English lawn
Just got heat waves dancing for me,
on the red dirt where I was born
(Chorus)
[Verse 3]
Feel the heart of my country,
beating to them lonely blues
Gotta get back there, gotta get back there,
I'll be back there real soon
(Chorus)

[Verse 1]

When you're drifting on the ocean

Bb F

and the sea is a perfect blue

But those storm clouds on the horizon

Bb F

are keeping you true to who are you

[Chorus]

Dm F

So take me away 'cross the spinifex plains

Bb F

where the true mirage never ends

Dm F

And the smell of the rain is a long way away

Gm Bb F

lay me down on my dry river bed

[Verse 2]

Don't have no white picket fence,

don't have no green English lawn

Just got heat waves dancing for me,

on the red dirt where I was born

(Chorus)

[Verse 3]

Feel the heart of my country,

beating to them lonely blues

Gotta get back there, gotta get back there,

I'll be back there real soon

(Chorus)
