Raining On The Rock

D                          Em7
Pastel red to burgundy and spinifex to gold
                                                          D
We've just come out of the mulga where the plains forever roll
                           Em7
Where Albert Namatjira has painted all the scenes
                                           D
And a shower has changed the lustre of his land


[CHORUS]
                        Em7                    D
And it's raining on the rock  in a beautiful country
                        Em7                          D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
                        Em7                             D
And it's raining on the rock  what an almighty sight to see
                     Em7                              D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me


[Verse]
D                         Em7
Everlasting daisies and a beautiful desert rose
                                          D
Where does their beauty come from, heaven knows
                              Em7
I could ask the wedgetail but he's away too high
                                             D
I wonder if he understands it's wonderful to fly


[CHORUS]
                        Em7                    D
And it's raining on the rock  in a beautiful country
                        Em7                          D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
                        Em7                             D
And it's raining on the rock  what an almighty sight to see
                     Em7                              D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me


[Bridge]
   D                          Em7
It cannot be described with a picture
                               D
The mesmerising colours of the Olgas
                       Em7
Or the grandeur of the rock
         D
Uluru is power


[CHORUS]
                        Em7                    D
And it's raining on the rock  in a beautiful country
                        Em7                          D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
                        Em7                             D
And it's raining on the rock  what an almighty sight to see
                     Em7                              D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me
