[Db] The faces [Ab] in the photograph [Bbm] have faded
_ And _ I can't [Db] believe he looks so much [Gb]
like me
_ _ For [Bbm]
it's been ten [Fm] years today
_ [Ebm] Since I left for Old [Bbm] Cork Station
_ [Ebm]
Saying I [Gb] won't be back [Ab] till the [Bbm]
droving's done
_ _ _ _ [Gb] For the rain [Db] never _ falls [Ab] on the dusty _ [Bb] _ Diamantina
[Bbm] And a drover [Db] finds it hard to [Gb] change his _ mind
_ [Ab] For [Bbm]
the years have surely [Fm] gone
[Gb] Like the draves from [Bbm] Old Cork Station
[Eb] _
And I [Gb] won't be [Abm] back till the [Bbm] droving's done _ _ _ _ _
[Db] Well it seems like [Ab] the sun comes up [Bbm] each morning _ _ _ _ _
Sets me [Db] up then takes it [Gb] all _ away
_ _ For [Bbm]
the dreaming [Fm] by the light [Eb] of the _ campfire [Bbm] at night
[Ebm] _
_ Ends with the [Ab] burning by [Bbm] the day
_ _ For _ [Gb]
the rain [Db] never falls [Ab] on the dusty _ [Bbm] _ Diamantina
And a drover [Db] finds it hard to [Gb] change his _ mind
_ _ [Ab] For [Bbm]
the years have [Fm] surely gone
[Gb] Like the draves from [Bbm] Old Cork Station
[Ebm] _
And I won't be [Gb] [Abm] back till the [Bbm] droving's done _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ [Db]
Sometimes I think [Ab] I'll settle back [Bbm] in Sydney
_ _ But it's been so [Db] long it's hard to [Gb] change my _ mind
_ _ _ [Bbm] For the cattle trail [Fm] goes on and on
And [Eb] the fences roll [Bbm] _ forever
_ [Eb] And I [Gb] won't be back [Ab] till the [Bbm] droving's done
_ _ _ For [Gb] the rain never [Db] _ falls [Ab] on the dusty _ _ [Bb] Diamantina
[Bbm] _ And a drover [Db] finds it hard to change [Gb] his mind
_ _ [Ab] For [Bbm] the years have surely [Fm] _ gone
Like [Gb] the draves from [Bbm] Old Cork Station
_ [Eb]
And I won't [Gb] be back [Ab] till the [Bbm] droving's done
_ _ For _ [Gb] the rain [Db] never falls on [Ab] the dusty _ [Bbm] _ Diamantina
And a [Db] drover finds it hard to [Gb] change his _ _ mind
_ [Ab] For [Gb]
the years have [Fm] surely gone
[Gb] Like the draves from Old [Bbm] Cork Station _
[Ebm] And I won't [Gb] be back [Ab] till the [Bb] droving's done
