Lyrics
Out where the river broke,
the bloodwood and the desert oak.
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels steam in fortyfive degrees.
The (E)time has come
to (D)say fair's fair,
to (A)pay the rent,
to (E)pay our share.
The time has come,
a (D)fact's a fact.
It (A)belongs to them,
let's (F#)give it back.
(Em)How can we dance when our (C)earth is turning?
(Em)How do we sleep while our (C)beds are burning?
(Em)How can we dance when our (C)earth is turning?
(Em)How do we sleep while our (C)beds are burning?
(D)The (Em)time has come to (C)say fair's fair,
to (G)pay our rent now, to (D)pay our share.
(E5)Four wheels scare the cockatoos
from Kintore East to Yuendemu.
The western desert lives and breathes in fortyfive degrees.
The (E)time has come
to (D)say fair's fair,
to (A)pay the rent,
to (E)pay our share.
The time has come,
a (D)fact's a fact.
It (A)belongs to them,
let's give it back.
(G)pay the rent now, to (D)pay our share.
The (Em)time has come, a (C)fact's a fact.
It (G)belongs to them, we're gonna (D)give it back.
(Em)How can we dance when our (C)earth is turning?
(Em)How do we sleep while our
(C)beds are burning?
