Stockman's Cry

Olivia Guthrie


     Dbm                                               Abm
I'm going to tell a story - my Great Aunty once told me
              Gbm                           Abm                Dbm
About a Stockman's Cry she heard every night

You see...

Dbm                    Abm
Every night she heard the stockman's cry
       Gbm                       Abm                       Bbm
She always knew that something wasn't right
     Dbm                                       Abm
He used to be happy then his wife passed away
            Gbm                            Abm              Dbm
And until this day he's still crying all the time

CHORUS:

E                                B
Why can't he move on
                      A                  B                         E
I know she's gone but atleast you're still here
E                                                        B
You must have something else to live for
                    A
Or was she all you had
         B                                   Dbm  Abm                            Gbm   Abm   Dbm
And thats why you're still sad                     (You're so sad)


The property's all he has, keeps him goin' from day to day
But at night he can't help but cry
I guess the loneliness is getting to him
But he has nowhere else to turn so he's stuck by himself wishing she'd return

(Chorus)

I'm going to tell a story - my Great Aunty still tells me
About a Stockman's cry she hears every night
