VERSE 1: 
Out where the river broke 
The bloodwood and the desert oak 
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels 
Steam in forty five degrees 

     E     E 
    The time has come 
E    D/E   D/E 
    To say fair's fair 
D/E  A/E   A/E 
    To pay the rent 
A/E  E     E 
    To pay our share 

     E     E 
    The time has come 
E    D/E   D/E 
    A fact's a fact 
D/E  A/E   A/E 
    It belongs to them 
A/E       F# 
    Let's give it back
