There's a road train going nowhere
Roads are cut, lines are down
We'll be staying at the Roma bar
Till that monsoon passes on

The backbone of this country's broken G A G A Em
The land is cracked and the land is sore G A G A Em
Farmers are hanging on by their fingertips G A G A Em
We cursed and stumbled across that shore D
[Refrão]G Dm
I hear much support for the monarchy
G Dm F
I hear the Union Jack's to remain,

I see Namatjira in custody
Am Em C D
I see Truganini's in chains

Blue collar work it don't get you nowhere G A G A Em
You just go round and round in debt G A G A Em
Somebody's got you on that treadmill, mate G A G A Em
And I hope you're not beaten yet D

I hear much support for the monarchy
