D    G            A
Voices cry out,   shells of houses
             D       G          A
White faced children,  hungry eyes
           D        G                    A
The cruel sea calls   to the unwilling traveller
                       D    G       A
Who would look for the road to survival


Chorus 1
          D  G             A 
Hold my hand   a little longer
               D       G            A
Take one last look out   over the fields
                       D   G            A
To the reds and the browns of diamond mountain
                          D   G       A
Bring the smell and the sound to your station


Chorus 2
               D A G           A
I will be here       when you need me
               D A G               A
I will be here       in the pouring  rain
               D A G            A
I will be here       on diamond mountain


Verse 2
                  D        G         A
They bring their song line   to Australia
            D           G          A
Scattering magical airs   cities towns
               D  G             A
The dreaming road   to diamond mountain
             D     G                A
An ordinary wonder   on the heather ground

He kisses his love   on diamond mountain
              D       G         A
The mad wind whistles   bushes stones
                  D     G              A
Like two March swallows   back on thr mountain
           D             G           A
Come full circle at last    heaven, home
