Em                                
Will you have to tell lies when 
   C                    D         
the kids ask you why, the 
              B7
horizon's a blanket of gloom
 Em                           C   
When the battle lines draw - which
                D
 way will you turn

[Verse 3]
Em                                
And southwest Tassie's got a dozer
                  D             
 track, and we'll never ever get 
    Em
Lake Pedder back
  Cmaj7                      
A director and a graph, and a 
million dollar laugh, where ya gonna
         Em

Em                                
Enrich the oxide out of Port

Pirie, and the toxic gases, they 
won't even see
 Cmaj7                         
But where ya gonna go, when the 
North wind blows, where ya gonna run
     Em

Em                              C
And your loungeroom is screening 
                              D    
Nationwide, you've just given blood
        B7
 to the bank
 Em                                
And the books on your shelves are a
 C                          D     
 measure, of all that you've 
     B7
learned
Em                                
Will you have to tell lies when

the kids ask you why, the

dream I've got a B-52 on my TV 
screen
C                                 
And a man in a tie, pointing to
