                                 D      G 
Now I could spend my holidays on videos galore 
   C                        D         G 
Or lie on the beach getting sorry and sore 
   Em               C             D               G 
Or I could sail the ocean and see another foreign shore 
       Em             C            D               G      D G 
Well I took my little kelpie and I sailed the nullabor 

G                                 D         G 
And I saw the colour changes from Albany to Broome 
C                        D             G 
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune 
Em  D           C 
Wildflowers in bloom 
Em                  C                  D          G     D G 
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom 

G                         D 
And saw the giant Karri's oh 
    C        D         G 
You couldn't paint the view 
Em           D             C 
Amazing what cross cut can do 
Em                  C        D             G     D G 
I would've liked to be there before, would you? 

G                                D 
And I heard about the whales and cried 
C    D         G 
Many thousands died 
            Em       D       C 
But they're swimming back to sing 
Em              C            D         G      D G 
I bet you never heard a more beautiful thing 

G                                   D 
And through the Swan Valley there's Banksias 
    C        D        G         
And warriors making a stand 
     Em       D         C 
Yeah look out for Black Boys 
Em             C               D        G     D G 
Like guardians protecting this dear old land 

G                   D 
Spinefex and Snappy Gums 
C    D          G 
Hazy green blue grey 
Em        D       C 
You gotta go that way 
Em                C              D        G   D G 
There nearly half Australia over there in WA 

G                                    D         G 
Well I saw the colours changing from Albany to Broome 
C                        D             G 
A pair of white corellas singing out a tune 
Em  D          C 
Wildflowers in bloom 
Em                  C                  D     G          D G 
And I saw the rusty hamersley's from a dusty Wittenoom 

G                                   D 
So you could spend your holidays on videos 
C             D             G 
Or lie on the beach getting sore 
Em           D        C 
Or you could sail the ocean 
Em                      C             D        G 
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor 
Em                      C             D        G 
Why don't you take your best mate and sail the Nullabor, hey!
