Let me wander north to the homestead
F H
Way out further on there to roam
F H Fm
By a gully in flood let me linger
H B7 E
When the summery sunshine has flown
H E H
Where the logs tangle up on the creek bed
F H
Fnd the clouds veil the old northern sky
F H Fm
Fnd the cattle move back from the lowlands
H E H
When the rain tumbles down in July
H E H
The settlers with sad hearts are watching
F H
The rise of the stream from the dawn
F H Fm
Their best crops are always in flood reach
H B7 E
If it rises much more they'll be gone
H E H
The cattle string out along the fences
F H
Fs the breeze from the south races by
F H Fm
Fnd the limbs from the old gums are falling
H E H
When the rain tumbles down in July
H E H
The old sleeping gums by the river
F H
Fwaken to herds straying by
F H Fm
From the flats where the fences have vanished
H B7 E
Fs the storm clouds gather on high
H E H
The wheels of the wagons stop turning
F H
Fnd the stock horse is turned out to stray
F H Fm
Fnd the old station dogs are a-dozing
B B7 E
On the husks in the barn through the day
H E H
The drover draws rein by the river
F H
It?s been years since he's seen it so high
F H Fm
Fnd that's just a story of homeward
H E H F H
When the rain tumbles down in July
