Terror Australia

F# F#maj7 F#7 B


[Verse]

F#                             
You can't think about the future 
        F#maj7
still running from the past
F#7                           B
Tall tales lie in history and flames
 burn through the memories
          F#                       
There's a country that is aching 
    F#maj7
for a way to call its own
        F#7                        
You can feel the mansions shaking 
      B
as the first real seed is sown


[Chorus]

    D#m                            
Now you can't talk about the future
           G#m
 if you're running from the past
       B                    F#    
It’s a terror in Australia, jails 
             C#
and guns and failure

[Verse 2]

F#                              
Can you see the ships a coming, 
F#maj7
stately through the heads
    F#7                            
And arched out over the white sails
        B
 is the merchant’s flag of red
    F#                             
Now Captain Cook spawns Captain 
      F#maj7
Coke and beer flows over rum
     F#7                           
In a twinkling of an eye my friend 
     B
they spent your dollars so very well


[Chorus 2]

    D#m                            
And those traditions they can't 
      G#m
sell sit silent in the sun
      B                            
Where ignorance and wealth combine 
   F#               C#
to crush the fruit upon the vine
       B                   F# C#
It’s a terror in Australia


[Interlude]

[Chorus 3]

    D#m                            
And those traditions they can't 
      G#m
sell sit silent in the sun
      B                            
Where ignorance and wealth combine 
   F#               C#
to crush the fruit upon the vine
    D#m                            
You can't think about the future if
        G#m
 you're running from the past
       B                    F#    
It’s a terror in Australia, jails 
             C#
and guns and failure
       B                   F# C#
It’s a terror in Australia
       B                 F# C#
It’s a terror in Australia
       B                 F# C# B F#
It’s a terror in Australia
