D     Am     C      D


[Verse]

     D                  C
The wedge-tailed eagle circles high
G                     D
   Its spirit, it is free
D                      C
Since I grew up, he's followed close
    G          D
Wherever I may be
  D                Am
I feel the wind across my face
G                       D
  And touch it with my hand
   D                 Am
No matter what your bloodlines
   G               D
We belong to this land   Yeah


[Interlude]

D     Am     C      D


[Verse]

    D                   C
You might be black, you could be white
    G                  D
But come and join the choir
      D               C
This feeling in your belly means
       G                D
You're welcome at this fire
D             Am
 So many generations
    G              D
Between us we can trace
D                 Am
Flow away like a river
      G               D
Down to our dreamin' place


[Chorus]

         D           Am     C      D
Back on country
         D           Am     C      D

Bm       G        D         A
Bm       G         A        A        A        A


[Verse]

     D                    C
Your country might be a family farm
       G                   D
North Queensland patch of dirt
    D               C
Or Kings Street in Newtown
            G               D
Where they tucked away the hurt
D                 Am
Patient stories, different worlds
    G               D
Of love, hate, and fear
        D                      Am
With a single dream, how many tribes
     G             D
All come together here?


[Chorus]

          D          Am     C      D
Back on country
          D          Am     C      D
Back on country, yeah


[Bridge]

       Em              G
It's a living thing, a giving thing
D            A
 Older than time
      Em               G
This land, it owes us nothing
     D            A
It's not yours or mine
             Em            G
So when the weight of the world
    D                A
Is crowdin' up your head
         Em
Come and lose yourself
       G
Maybe find yourself


[Chorus]

         D         Am      C       D
Back on country
         D            Am      C      D
Back on country, yeah
