Chords for XAVIER RUDD - "Land Rights" - (Live in Hollywood, CA) #JAMINTHEVAN

I do have a guitar. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] Just to [D] remind you, I just watched that Breaking Bad series.
Oh yeah, yeah.
How was that?
Well that's how it ends rather.
[C#] _ _ _ _ Yeah.
Yeah.
_ How you going?
I'm Xavier Rudd and I'm here in Hollywood at the Fonda Theatre.
The next song I'm going to play, the story comes from Arnhem Land in the top of Australia
where back in _ the 70s, mining companies had moved in on Aboriginal land.
This one particular tribe decided enough was enough and they went up with spears
and they had a standoff with a _ bulldozer and it made the papers _ headlines like
Savages Stand Up.
A bark petition was put together and sent to Parliament and it went to court
and it was the first land rights case that our country ever saw where Aboriginal people
started to get respected for their traditional lands.
And this is a song called Land Rights. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ [C#] _ [F#] _
_ [C#] _ [G#m] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ Cause it [F#] was sacred, _ _ _ _ cause it [C#] was home, _ _ _ _ cause [F#] these were _ _ _ feelings
And so long [C#] _ ago, _ [G#] they [C#] listened to the [F#] _ spirits
_ _ They came up [C#] strong, _ _ _ _ all [G#] put together
_ [F#m] _ _ Sing their [C#] song, _ _ _ this is how [F#] they did it
_ _ _ Spears by [C#] their side, _ _ _ stood on [F#] the _ _ mountain
_ _ [C#] For their _ _ [G#] land rights and all the [F#] people noticed
_ And a movement [C#] took flight, _ _ _ _ they [G#] said
This is our [F#] home, these are [C#] our rights
_ _ _ Ooh, [G#m] _
this is our [F#] home, these are [C#] our rights
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] See _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _ [G#] _ _ [C#] _
_ [D#] _ [C#] _ _ _ country it [F#] was taken, _ _ _ land [C#] dug up
_ _ _ Families [F#] were broken, _ _ _ spirits were [C#]
crushed
_ [G#] _ _ Language [F#] that was _ silenced, is now free to [C#] be passed
_ _ _ Cup [G#] that was _
_ _ [F#] emptied, slowly [C#] filling up
_ _ _ We can [F#] put together, _ show our children it is [C#] time
Cause _ _ _ _ [G#] _
this is our [F#] home, these are [C#] our rights
_ _ _ Ooh, [G#] _
this is our [F#] home, these are [C#] our rights
_ _ _ Ooh, [G#] this is our [F#m] home, these are [C#] our rights
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _
