G      D       Em                  C          D      G
Just above the Archer    where the wild scrub cattle roam
          C              D              G     C  G
There’s a little wisp of smoke   in the air
            D     Em                   C        D          G
From a corrugated station house,   the Jacksons call their home
         C               D                 G      C  G
Near the cattle yards    down there in the gully

Granny Dawn will greet you    just as sweet as apple pie

With a cake and king size kettle   on the boil
              D     Em            C       D      G
She drags the rusty gate   with a welcome in her eye
    C                D             G      C  G
She loves her little gunyah in the gully
 
[Verse 3]
    G          D       Em                   C      D    G
And they don’t wear no shoes    unless they saddle up a horse
            D        Em         D
Or take the shoppin’ wagon into town
           G    D      Em            C      D     G
But it’s a long way to Weipa, it can wait another week
         C             D              G      C  G
Till the dust from the muster settles down

[Verse 4]
       G       D      Em                C      D        G
You’re duckin’ in the doorway if you’re nearly six foot tall
    C                D               G      C  G
The beams of stringy bark are pretty low
      D         Em         C         D      G
Billy hangs his hat on the longhorns on the wall
  C           D                 G    C  G
A cool siesta down there in the gully
 
[Verse 5]
        G   D     Em                  C       D     G
And the old Crown cooker   smokes the kitchen sooty black
              D       Em               D
And wild pigs eat the mangoes   in the yard
    G      D        Em             C        D     G
But Granny finds it easy   just to leave it as it is
    C                D             G    C  G
She loves her little gunyah in the gully
 
[Verse 6]
     G         D          Em                  C      D       G
And “Ooh” she says, “It’s gettin’ cold”, it’s twenty-five degrees
              D       Em             D
But she’s got special jam drops in a jar
    G         D      Em               C       D        G
And Grandkids gather round,    little hands around the cocoa
     C               D             G    C  G
They love her little gunyah in the gully

[Outro]
G         D        Em                C        D         G
Just when you were thinkin’ that the good old days were gone
        C               D             G    C  G
There’s Granny’s little gunyah in the gully
