Redgum - The last frontier

It's a ^Dcorrugated highway leading ^Dmaj7north from Port Augusta lined With ^Bmratted cars that ^Gdidn't ^Bmrate a ^Atow

^DSalt plains out of Pimba and your ^Bmeyes begin to stream Onto Kin^Ggoonya, huddled ^Cdusty by the ^Aroad

Ro^Dmantic notions shattered like the ^Dmaj7tyres that didn't hack it This has ^Bmgot to be the ^Gcountries ^Bmlast fron^Atier

Where a ^Dsports cars next to useless, running ^Bmcattle grids and river beds We ^Gdrove a van from ^C196^A3

^GSomeone mentioned ^Awalkabout, ^Dkiss your job good^Gbye Just to ^Dsee the country shimmer through the ^Awindscreen Drinking ^Gbeer telling ^Astories while ^Dlaughter filled the ^Gnight ^DFlexitime's behind you like a ^Abad dream ^{G A D A}

Got a ^Dflat on ANZAC highway and ^Dmaj7Lawson on your shelf It's a ^Bmsouthern comfort ^Gair-con^Bmditioned ^Arage Where a ^Dhomesteads more than just a cheap print ^Bmdangling from a wall And ^Gmateship's more than ^Clines upon a ^Apage

We went ^Glooking for ^AAustralia inbe^Dtween the TV ^Glines 'Cause the ^DABC just couldn't make it ^Areal A ^Gcolour docu^Amentary from a ^Dbeanbag on the ^Gfloor ^DNever shows as much as it con^Aceals ^{G A D A}

^DStark and blistered Alice Springs and a ^Dmaj7river runs with shame And you ^Bmwipe the sheets of ^Gbulldust ^Bmfrom your ^Aeyes A^Dnother countries uniform, mi^Bmrage it falls apart To the ^Gopen gap be^Ctween the truth and ^Alies

^GGo and see your ^Acountry mate, ^Dtravel agents ^Gscream Poli^Dticians sell its heart just for a ^Apastime ^GSigns and highwire ^Afences of a ^Dland where I be^Glong It's as ^Dif I'm in the outback for the ^Alast time

For the ^Glast time ^A uh-^Dhuh ^A For the ^Glast time ^A uh-^Dhuh ^A For the ^Glast time ^A uh-^Dhuh ^A For the ^Glast time ^A uh-^Dhuh ^A
