1st verse:
E                E
 Out where the river broke
    E                 E
The bloodwood and the desert oak
E                 E
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
 E             E
Steam in forty five degrees


Pre-chorus :
    E              E
The time has come
   Asus4            Asus4
To say fair's fair
   A             A
To pay the rent
   E               E
To pay our share
    E              E
The time has come
   Asus4            Asus4
A fact's a fact
     A             A
It belongs to them
      F#>let ring     (F#)   
Let's give it back

Em                        C                G    G
How can we dance when our earth is turning
Em                        C                D    D
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
Em                        C                G    G
How can we dance when our earth is turning

How do we sleep while our beds are burning

The time has come to say fairs fair

to pay the rent, now to pay our share

2nd verse:
E                     E
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
     E               E
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
    E              E
The western desert lives and breathes
   E            E
In forty five degrees

To pay our share

The time has come

A fact's a fact

Let's give it back
