When The Snow Falls On The Alice

Dm  G  C  Bb F C
INTRO
                             Dm
I spent some time out in the canefields,
G                           C     G/B Am C/G
 I headed west to lightning ridge.
                       Dm
I've seen every lonely roadhouse,
G                           C      C/B Am C7
 From Charleville to Murray Bridge.
                         F
I see your face in every shadow,
G                          Am
I hear your voice upon the wind.
                     Dm
The more I try to forget you,
G                            C   Bb F C/G
 The more your memory rushes in.



                           F    G                      C   G/B Am C/G
When the snow falls on the Alice and it floods at Tilberoo,
Continues after the ad
                       Dm   G                             C   Bb F C
When the Roper freezes over, that's when I'll stop loving you.

                         Dm
Just like the end of the rainbow,
G                         C     G/B Am C/G
You're always just out of reach.
               Dm
We parted in a moment,
G                              C     G/B Am C7
 But I've been leaving you for years.
                          F
So don't ask me where I'm goin',
G                           Am
 'Cause I won't know 'til I arrive.
                                 Dm
Though you're a thousand miles behind me,
G                        C     Bb F C
You're never far from my mind.



                           F    G                      C   G/B Am C/G
When the snow falls on the Alice and it floods at Tilberoo,
                   Dm   G                       C
I'll lay my burden down, and my waitin' will be through.
                                F      G                          Am
'Til then you'll find me on the highway just somewhere beyond the blue,
                       Dm   G                             C   Bb F C
When the Roper freezes over, that's when I'll stop loving you.
