From the day they met Slim Dusty

It hangs beneath the longhorns in a simple timber frame

A 
Hard as snowy granite 
Bm                         A       G             A   
But when "Pub" came on the radio I swear I saw a tear 
D                   Dsus2 D 
His life was a movie 
     A 
Slim Dusty was the soundtrack 
Bm                       A       G             A 
But he never thought the end was ever quite so near
