The Diamintina Drover by John Williamson
tabbed by Skam127
You can choose to fingerpick the song if you want BUT I'm to lazy to write a propper tab
it and I like using full chords.
If you can make an improvement please tell me becasue i know that this isn't exact but
sounds good.

Verse 1
C G Am
The faces in the photograph have faded
C Am
And I can't believe he looks so much like me
Dm E
For it's been ten years today
Dm Am
Since I left for Old Cork Station
Dm C G Am
Sayin' I won't be back till the drovin's done
Chorus
C G Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
C Am
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
Dm E
For the years have surely gone
Dm Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Station
Dm C G Am
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
Verse 2
C G Am
Well it seems like the sun comes up each mornin'
C Am
Sets me up and takes it all away
Dm E
For the dreaming by the light
Dm Am
Of the camp fire at night
Dm C G Am
Ends with the burning by the day
Chorus
C G Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
C Am
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
Dm E
For the years have surely gone
Dm Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Sta-ation
Dm C G Am
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
Instrumental

Verse 3
C G Am
Sometimes I think I'll settle back in Sydney
C Am
But it's been so long it's hard to change my mind
Dm E
For the cattle trail goes on and on
Dm Am
And the fences roll forever
Dm C G Am
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
Chorus
C G Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
C Am
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
Dm E
For the years have surely gone
Dm Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Sta-ation
Dm C G Am
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
Chorus
C G Am
For the rain never falls on the dusty Diamantina
C Am
And a drover finds it hard to change his mind
Dm E
For the years have surely gone
Dm Am
Like the drays from Old Cork Sta-ation
Dm C G Am
And I won't be back till the drovin's done
