Capo 2nd fret 


Em                                Am 
But I'll find a better word, someday 
                        Em    
Leaving only me and my dreams 
    Am                  Em 
My cattle and a resonator 
Em 
I drove all the beast down right under your nose 
The lumbering footloose power 
                   Am 
The bull and the rose 
       Em 
Don't touch them don't try to hurt them 
     Am                  Em 
My cattle.............. 
C                    Am       C                              Am  
I drove them by the crops         and thought the crops were lost 
C          Am                Em 
I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts 
C            Am           C                     Am 
And I set my watch            against the city clock 
        Em 
It was way off 

G                          C          Am        C 
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country 
G 
It takes a strong, strong 
   C                       Am       C 
It breaks a strong, strong mind 
G                         C          Am        C 
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country 
G 
It takes a strong, strong 
C                           Am       C 
It breaks a strong, strong mind 
G 
And anything less, anything less 
C                      Am               C 
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time 

Em                   Am     Em       Am 
But the pain and frustration, is not mine 
Em                 Am                 Em 
It belongs to the cattle, through the valley 

Dm 
And when my cattle turns on me 
         Am         Em 
I was knocked back flat 
Dm                              Am           Em 
I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track 
Dm                          Am                Em 
Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand 
Am              Em 
I rose like a drover 
Am                    Em 
For I am in the end a drover 
Am             Em 
A drover by trade 
Am                  Em       Am 
When my cattle turns on me 
        Em            Am 
I am a drover, double fold 
Am 
My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone 
Am 
One, one, one, one, one, one ... 

G                          C          Am        C 
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country 
G 
It takes a strong, strong 
   C                       Am       C 
It breaks a strong, strong mind 
G                         C          Am        C 
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country 
G 
It takes a strong, strong 
C                           Am       C 
It breaks a strong, strong mind 
G 
And anything less, anything less 
C                      Am               C 
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
