Auctioneer

	  		Chorus 
	A	    D 
Auctioneer, Auctioneer 
	   A 
Bring that hammer down 
		   G         A 
Take my family and smash it apart 
                       D 
Well its just a few machines 
      A 
and a little piece of land 
                  G          A 
Bring that hammer down on my heart. 
 
 
         A             D 
Well his family's been here 
    A 
for 70 years or more 
                        D 
his grandad cleared the land 
                      E 
with just an old wood saw 
          D 
heard him crying late last night 
        A 
when he thought I wasn't round 
           G                A 
I'm sorry grandad I let you down 
 
Chorus	A D A G A 
 
Well there's acres and acres 
of wheat in the sun 
my hearts aching and aching 
for the work that should be done 
now the banks stopped the cheques 
and no one wants the crop 
and its breaking my heart to watch it rot 
 
Chorus	A D A G A D A G A 
 
After harvest rain and flood 
and years and years of drought 
now the interest rates are gonna finally wipe us out 
they say its not our fault 
its just the world economy 
but he blames himself 
cause were down on our knee's.
