[Em]
[Dm] [G]
[Am] [C]
[F] [G]
[C] The faces [G] in the photograph [F] were fading
I [G]
[Am] can't believe [C] he looked so much [F] like me
[G] For it's [Am] been ten long [Em] years today
[Dm] Since I left for Old [Am] Cork Station
[Dm] Saying I [F] won't be back till the drove [A] is done
[Am] [C] For [F] the rain never [C] falls
[Dm] On the dusty [Am] diamond hill
[Dm] The drover finds [Em] it hard to change [F] his mind
[G]
[C] For the years have [Em] surely gone
[F] Like the dreads from Old [Am] Cork Station
[Dm] I [F] won't be back till the drove [Am] is done
It [G]
[C] seems [G] like the sun comes up [F] each morning
[G]
[Am] Sets me up [C] then takes it all [F] away
[G]
[Am] Dreaming by [Em] the light of [Dm] the campfire [Am] at night
[D] [C] Ends with [F] the early [G] light of [Am] the day
[C] For [F] the rain never [C] falls
[D] On the dusty diamond [Am] hill
[Dm] The drover finds it [Em] hard to change [F] his mind
[G] For [C] the years have [Em] surely gone
Like [F] the dreads from Old [Am] Cork Station
[Dm] And I [C] won't [F] be back till [G] the drove is [Am]
[Dm] [Em]
[Dm] [G]
[Am] [C]
[F] [G] done
[C] I sometimes think [G] I'll suddenly be back [F] in the city
It's [G]
[Am] been so long and [C] it's hard to change [F] your mind
[G] For [Am] the cattle trail [Em] rolls on and on
[Dm] The fences last [Am] forever
And [Dm] [C] I won't [F] be back when [G] the drove is [Am] done
[C] For [F] the rain never [C] falls
[D] On the dusty diamond [Am] hill
[Dm] The drover finds [Em] it hard to change [F] his mind
[G] For [C] the years have [Em] surely gone
[F] Like the dreads from Old [Am] Cork Station
[Dm] And I [F] won't be back when the drove [Am] is done
[Dm] [Em]

[A] [C]
