D    D/C#   D/B       D/A 
Cockatoos call in the morning 
G    G/F#         Em     A 
Surf crashes on a golden sand 
D         D/C#           D/B          D/A 
He's five hours from the dust and the paddocks

To the edge of the big brown land

     G                 D/F# 
He's ready to hear the crackle of gravel 
Em                D/F# 
Yearning for that homeward road 
      G                        D/F# 
He'll cross that bridge to the sandy ridge 
    Bm                   F#m 
Out where the black pine grow 
G         D/F#           Em         D 
Take that track straight back to Adelago

It's been a struggl just to get away 
   D             D/C#         D/B     D/A 
He stares out to sea, but the call of home

Gets stronger every day

At the journey's end to stand again 
       G        G/F# Asus A 
At the gates to Waratah
