Indian Pacific

Written by Joy McKean

	  		D                       E 
From coast to coast by night and day 
           A7               D 
Hear the clicking of the wheels 
      G               
The humming of the diesel 
 
On her ribbons of steel 
 A 
Carrying the memories 
 
Of a nation built by hand 
                                 D 
See the Indian Pacific span the land 
 
 
 D                           E 
She's the pride of all the railway men 
        A7               D 
Cross country where she flies 
          G     
From the blue Pacific waters 
 
To where the mountains rise 
     A 
By lakes and wide brown rivers 
 
Through desert country dry 
                               D 
See the Indian Pacific passing by 
 
 
         G 
Oh the Indian Pacific  
           D 
She goes rolling down the track 
       G  
Five thousand miles to travel 
 D                      A 
Before she's there and back 
 D                  E 
Beside the line a drover waves 
      A7               D 
His battered old grey hat 
     G 
And kids are catching yabbies 
 
Down by the river flat 
       A 
And a woman hangs her washing 
 
In the backyard near the line 
                                D 
As the Indian Pacific's rolling by 
 
 
Fiddle Solo : D G D A D G D A D 
 
 
 D                         E 
Hear the whistle blowing lonely 
             A7            D 
'Neath the Nullabor star light 
 G                        
Saluting those who walked across 
 
The track she rides tonight 
 A  
Calling to the railway camp 
 
And the fettlers on the line 
                                 D 
I'm the Indian Pacific right on time 
 
 
 D                       E 
From the silver of the Broken Hill 
    A7             D 
To old Kalgoorlie gold 
 G 
She mirrors all the colours 
 
Of the land so hard and old 
           A 
Then the western flowers are blooming 
 
And the air is just like wine 
                                 D 
And the Indian Pacific's making time 
 
 
         G 
Oh the Indian Pacific  
           D 
She goes rolling down the track 
        G             
Five thousand miles to travel  
 D                      A 
Before she's there and back 
           D             E 
From the waters of the western sea 
         A7           D 
To the eastern ocean sand 
      G       A               D 
The Indian Pacific spans the land 
         G       A               D 
Oh The Indian Pacific spans the land
