Diamantina Drover Acordes

[Verse]
     C            G              Am
The faces in the photograph have faded
      Am               C                  F
And I can't believe he looks so much like me
          Am              Em
For it's been ten years today
         Dm                Am
Since I left for Old Cork Station
       Dm          F             G        Am
Sayin' I won't be back till the drovin's done.
 
[Chorus]
         F         C            G           Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
         Am            C                 F       G
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
         Am               Em
For the years have surely gone
          F                  Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
Dm                F             G       Am
  And I won't be back till the drovin's done
 
[Verse]
        C               G                Am
Well it seems like the sun comes up each mornin'
 Am             C             F
Sets me up and takes it all away
        Am              Em
For the dreaming by the light
        Dm           Am
Of the camp fire at night
 Dm           F       G      Am
Ends with the burning by the day
 
[Chorus]
         F          C            G          Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
      Am              C                   F       G
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
         Am               Em
For the years have surely gone
          F                   Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
Dm                F             G       Am
  And I won't be back till the drovin's done.

[Verse]
      C                 G              Am
Sometimes I think I'll settle back in Sydney
         Am                 C                 F
But it's been so long it's hard to change my mind
        Am                Em
For the cattle trail goes on and on
        Dm             Am
And the fences roll forever
Dm                F            G         Am
  And I won't be back till the drovin's done.
 
[Chorus]
         F          C            G           Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
         Am            C                 F       G
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
         Am               Em
For the years have surely gone
          F                  Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
Dm             F             G        Am
   I won't be back till the drovin's done
 
[Chorus]
         F         C            G           Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
       Am              C                 F       G
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
         Am               Em
For the years have surely gone
          F                  Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
Dm               F              G       Am
  And I won't be back till the drovin's done.
