[Am] Master Rose, [C] the _ cattleman [G] won't let the miners [Dm] on his _ [Am] land.
Says he's married [C] to the [G] property. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] Six _ generations [C] call it home [G] and this is where he'll [Dm] rest his [A] bones.
Beyond [Am] the dam, [C] out by the old [G] pine tree, _ _ _ truth [F] walks [C] slowly.
[G] _ _ _
[F] In the _ _ [C] countryside _ where [G] the willow [Am] whispers a lonesome lullaby,
[F] and the _ _ [C] magpies dance by [G] the _ _ _ creek. _
[F] Family roots [C] run deep and they're [G] worth more than a quick [Am] fix dollar could ever [D] be.
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ The truth [Am] walks _ [C] slowly.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ The truth [Am] walks _ [C] slowly.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] Heralds sting and scratch [C] and bite the hand [G] of those who'd come [D] and take his land.
[Am] Hearts as empty [C] as his water [G] tank. _ _
_ _ He [Am] knows this country [C] rock and stream.
[G] His sweat is washed, [D] the mountain clean.
[A] He [Am] says you can [C] take that to [G] the bank. _ _
_ The truth [F] walks slowly. _
_ _ _ In the _ _ [C] countryside _ where [G] the willow [Am] whispers a lonesome lullaby,
[F] and the _ _ [C] magpies dance by [G] the creek. _
_ _ _ [F] Family roots [C] run deep and they're [G] worth more than a quick [Am] fix [G] dollar could ever [D] be. _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ The truth walks _ [C] slowly. _ _ _

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [C] And _ [G] every _ year [Am] or so, [C] we lose _ control of [G] our _ _ own.
For all [F] the roots run [C] deep and they're [G] worth more than a quick [Am] fix [G] dollar could ever be.
[D] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ The truth [Am] walks slowly.
The truth [C] walks, the truth [G] walks, the truth _ walks.
The truth [A] walks [Am] slowly. _
[C] _ _ _ [G] Oh, _ _ _ _ the truth [Am] walks slowly.
The up and down, [G] the here and now, [G] the why and the what, the when and how.
The truth [Am] walks slowly.
Oh, [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ the truth walks slowly. _
[G] _ [C] _ Oh, _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [Am] the truth walks slowly.
The up and down, [C] the here and now, [G] the why and the what, the when and how.
The truth [Am] walks, the up and down, _
[C] the here and now, [G] the why and the what, the when and how.
Winter crops are really good this year, [C] hopefully everything turns out alright.
