lyrics
The Great Divide
(As written by Mark Gardner)
G EM G EM
Down by the river ,the animals unite.
You can see all the people, in broad daylight.
Upon the wilderness there is time.
But money speaks for us all,
As time flies by.........
GG D/GG D/GG ASUS4/GG ASUS4/ASUS4/GGD
Across The Border,
Through The Desert plains.
I see the farmers dancing in the rain.
Some speak from the Alice,
As I sing from, as I sing from
The Great Divide........
G EM G EM G EM G EM
In this great country of ours
The truth goes round and round
From Melbourne to Sydney
I have seen plenty of dust
One by OneOur trees Grow So tall
One By One our heritage is all gone...
Repeat Chorus
Wait a second you’ll hear the sacred call
It’s wild it’s free it’s as though it’s right next to me.
One by One our civilisation grows.
One by one our heritage is all sold....
Repeat Chorus
Solos
Oooh Oo- Ooh
Oooh Oo-0oh
