Em C/G D/F# Em x 4
 
[Verse]
 
    Em                 C/G
I'm talking about Parachilna
         D/F#        Em
Prairie Hotel Parachilna
Em                       C/G
Where you won't grow no roses
     D/F#            Em
But all the women try it
Em                    C/G
West of the Flinders Rangers
         D/F#              Em
She's watching all the strangers
Em                 C/G
Building rubbled shelters
    D/F#          Em
But making no impression
        Em                 C/G
On a the land's so old and fragile
     D/F#               Em
Its bones are poking through
        C/G
And its flesh is blowing
 D/F#             Em
All the way to Sydney
 
    Em                 C/G
I'm talking about Parachilna
         D/F#        Em
Prairie Hotel Parachilna
  Em                   C/G
Where dust like talcum powder
D/F#             Em
Finds its way inside you
  Em               C/G
And settles on your mantle
      D/F#                Em
Makes muddy tears from crying
Em               C/G
Looking at faded hoses
     D/F#                 Em        Em
Like snakes out in the garden
    C/G
The beds are blowing
 D/F#              Em
All the way to Sydney
 
[Chorus]
         G                    D/F#
They're dancing and they're singing
Em
All around the bar
        C/G               D
There's nothing like a beer
            Em
To wash it down
 G               D/F#
Batten down the hatches
    Em
The wind is getting stronger
 C/G                     D/F#         Em
Looks as though we're staying in tonight

Em                      C/G
Where you won't grow no roses
D/F#                 Em
But all the women try it
Em                C/G
I left with faded hoses
     D/F#                 Em
Like snakes out in the garden
Em                    C/G
In the company of the King Brown
D/F#                 Em      Em
Keep your shotgun loaded
Em                        C/G
Near the back door of the kitchen
      D/F#                Em
It'll come back for the water
      C/G
Gonna blow that reptile
D/F#              Em
All the way to Sydney
 
[Chorus]
         G                    D/F#
They're dancing and they're singing
Em
All around the bar
        C/G               D/F#
There's nothing like a beer
            Em
To wash it down
 G               D/F#
Batten down the hatches
    Em
The wind is getting stronger
 C/G                     D/F#         Em
Looks as though we're staying in tonight

Prairie Hotel Parachilna
Em                     C/G
Where the crows fly backwards
      D/F#                Em
I'm talking about the backwoods
  Em                 C/G
West of the Flinders Ranges
      D/F#                   Em
She's watching all the strangers

Yes it looks as though we're staying in tonight
