The real people went away

Em                                AmBut I'll find a better word, someday
                        Em   Leaving only me and my dreams
    Am                  EmMy cattle and a resonator
EmI drove all the beast down right under your nose
The lumbering footloose power
                   AmThe bull and the rose
       EmDon't touch them don't try to hurt them
     Am                  EmMy cattle..............
C                    Am       C                              Am I drove them by the crops         and thought the crops were lost
C          Am                EmI consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts
C            Am           C                     AmAnd I set my watch            against the city clock
        EmIt was way off

G                          C          Am        CYeah one thing about this wild, wild country
GIt takes a strong, strong
   C                       Am       CIt breaks a strong, strong mind
G                         C          Am        CYeah one thing about this wild, wild country
GIt takes a strong, strong
C                           Am       CIt breaks a strong, strong mind
GAnd anything less, anything less
C                      Am               CMakes me feel like I'm wasting my time

Em                   Am     Em       AmBut the pain and frustration, is not mine
Em                 Am                 EmIt belongs to the cattle, through the valley

DmAnd when my cattle turns on me
         Am         EmI was knocked back flat
Dm                              Am           EmI was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track
Dm                          Am                EmThen I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand
Am              EmI rose like a drover
Am                    EmFor I am in the end a drover
Am             EmA drover by trade
Am                  Em       AmWhen my cattle turns on me
        Em            AmI am a drover, double fold
AmMy cattle bears it all away for me and everyone
AmOne, one, one, one, one, one ...

G                          C          Am        CYeah one thing about this wild, wild country
GIt takes a strong, strong
   C                       Am       CIt breaks a strong, strong mind
G                         C          Am        CYeah one thing about this wild, wild country
GIt takes a strong, strong
C                           Am       CIt breaks a strong, strong mind
GAnd anything less, anything less
C                      Am               CMakes me feel like I'm wasting my time
