Drover

Capo 2nd fret

The real people went away

Em                                Am
But I'll find a better word, someday
                        Em
Leaving only me and my dreams
    Am                  Em
My cattle and a resonator
Em
I drove all the beast down right 
under your nose
The lumbering footloose power
                   Am
The bull and the rose
       Em
Don't touch them don't try to hurt 
them
     Am                  Em
My cattle..............
C                    Am       C 
I drove them by the crops       
                             Am
  and thought the crops were lost
C          Am                Em
I consoled myself with rudimentary 
thoughts
C            Am           
And I set my watch            
C                     Am
against the city clock
        Em
It was way off

G                          C     
Yeah one thing about this wild, 
     Am        C
wild country
Continues after the ad
G
It takes a strong, strong
   C                       Am     
It breaks a strong, strong mind
  C

G                         C      
Yeah one thing about this wild, 
    Am        C
wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
C                           Am   
It breaks a strong, strong mind
    C

G
And anything less, anything less
C                      Am        
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my
       C
 time

Em                   Am     Em  
But the pain and frustration, is
     Am
 not mine
Em                 Am            
It belongs to the cattle, through
     Em
 the valley

Dm
And when my cattle turns on me
         Am         Em
I was knocked back flat
Dm                              
I was knocked out cold for one 
Am           Em
clack of the train track
Dm                          Am   
Then I rose a colossal hand 
             Em
buried, buried in sand
Am              Em
I rose like a drover
Am                    Em
For I am in the end a drover
Am             Em
A drover by trade
Am                  Em       Am
When my cattle turns on me
        Em            Am
I am a drover, double fold
Am
My cattle bears it all away for me 
and everyone
Am
One, one, one, one, one, one ...
