Diamantina Drover

    F            C             Dm
The faces in the photograph have 
faded
                         F         
And I can't believe he looks so 
      Bb
much like me
            C  Dm                Am
For it's been ten long years today
         G                Dm
Since I left for Old Cork Station
       G  F        Bb           
Sayin' I won't be back till the 
C         Dm
drovin's done

[Chorus]
 C       Bb        F            
For the rain never falls on the 
G           Dm
dusty Diamantina
                     Am            
The drover finds it hard to change 
    Bb
his mind
 C        F                 Am
For the years have surely gone
          Bb                 Dm
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
    Gm F        Bb        
And I won't be back till the 
   C         Dm
drovin's done

   F               C              
It seems like the sun comes up 
   Dm
each mornin'
                    F           
Sets me up and then takes it all 
  Bb
away
    C   Dm               Am
For the dreaming by the light
       G            Dm
Of the camp fire at night
 G    F       Bb      C         Dm
Ends with the burning light of day

[Chorus]
 C       Bb        F            
For the rain never falls on the 
G           Dm
dusty Diamantina
                     Am            
The drover finds it hard to change 
    Bb
his mind
 C        F                 Am
For the years have surely gone
          Bb                 Dm
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
    Gm F        Bb        
And I won't be back till the 
   C         Dm
drovin's done

(Solo)

[Verse 3]
   F                   C          
I sometimes think I'll settle back
     Dm
 in Sydney
                               F   
But it's been so long and it's hard
                Bb
 to change your mind
     C   Dm               Am
For the cattle trail goes on and on
    G               Dm
And fences roll forever
    G  F        Bb        
And I won't be back when the 
   C         Dm
drovin's done

[Chorus]
 C       Bb        F            
For the rain never falls on the 
G           Dm
dusty Diamantina
                     Am            
The drover finds it hard to change 
    Bb
his mind
 C        F                 Am
For the years have surely gone
          Bb                 Dm
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
    Gm F        Bb        
And I won't be back when the 
   C         Dm
drovin's done
