Bb     
Galleries of pink galahs,

Eb                  Bb
Crystal nights with diamond stars,

Cm             Bb
Apricots preserved in jars,

Cm7  F7sus4     Bb
     That's my home. 


Bb
Land of oceans in the sun,

Eb            Bb
Purple hazes, river gum,

Cm                     Bb
Breaks your heart when rain won't come,

Cm7  F7sus4          Bb
     It breaks your heart. 


Bb                   Eb/Bb
It takes a harsh and cruel drought

Bb                 Eb/Bb
To sort the weaker saplings out,

Bb                Eb/Bb
It makes room for stronger trees

                  Bb
Maybe that's what life's about. 



Bb                 Eb/Bb
Winter's come, the hills are brown,

Bb                    Eb/Bb
Shops are closed, the blinds are down.

Bb          Eb/Bb
Everybody's leaving town,

              Bb
They can't go on.
