[C]
Where the hills roll away from [D] a small country town,
[G] There are hearts filled with sorrow as the word spreads [C]
around.
And the jackass won't laugh, cause [D] there's no jokes to hear,
So [G] let me tell you the reason for the pub with [C] no beer.
Broken down on the track, for [D] she stripped every gear,
Stands the [G] old grey blitz wagon, the one with [C] the beer,
And the drivers near mad, standing [D] scratching his ear,
[G] He knows just what they're thinking at the pub with [C] no beer.
When the drover rides out and draws [D] rain by the truck,
He [G] joins in with the driver and curses [C] their luck,
Where's Billy the blacksmith, [D] we could do with him here,
But [G] Bill moved on to Grafton where the brewery [C] stands near.
So the drover rides back with [D] a brilliant idea,
He [G] rides hard in the saddle till the town's [C] drawin' near,
He dismounts in the lane and [D] the dog cringes near,
As [G] the swaggy's just leavin' the pub with [C] no beer.
There's excitement all round as [D] the drover tells where,
[G] The old blitz is busted on the plains way out [C]
there,
Every man that can ride says the [D] drover to all,
[G] Saddle up, let's get movin' and we'll bring back [C] the whole.
When the boys rode back in, what [D] a strange sight they made,
They [G] charged into the town like the old light [C] brigade,
With tow ropes and tackle they [D]
all pulled as one,
[G] And the old blitz moved faster than she ever had [C] done.
Soon the kegs were rolled in, one was [D] placed on the bar,
They [G] filled all the glasses, every jug and [C] each jar,
Soon the word passed around and [D] they all gave a cheer,
[G] And there was laughter once more in the pub with [C] no beer.
