C C/F C C/F
You won't listen to my songs anymore
C C/F C C/F
You ripped my poster off the wall
C C/F C C/F
Cause I'm a singer that went to the war
C C/F C C/F C/B
You see no good in me at all
Am G F
Pardon me if I believe that I haven't got it wrong
Am G
And before you turn your back on me
F Gsus G
I'll sing you one more song
Pre-chorus:
C
Cause I shook hands with a digger
G
On the wrong side of the world
Am
With a wife at home who holds her breath
F
and brand new baby girl
C
And the digger fights for freedom
G
In a job that must be done
Am
And I let go of his hands so proud
F
To be Aus...tral...ian
Chorus:
Em7 Am Am/G
And if unlike me you feel no pride at all
Em7 Am Am/G
Then go ahead and take me off your wall
F G
Cause I prefer to be a poster girl
C C/F C C/F
on the wrong side of the world
And I'm just the girl who sings the crazy songs
Not qualified to sit and judge
I've been right and I've known I've been wrong
But I'm for peace and I'm for love
And I admire the burning fire
That causes you to fight
I only wish the wrong side of the world
Had the same right
Cause I listened to the wisdom
Of the Aussie Brigadier
He spoke of widows and of orphans
And the need to dry their tears
And he leads the fight for freedom
In a job that must be done
And I've never been more proud to say
That I'm Aus...tral...ian
Chorus
C/B Am Am/G F
Maybe I'm naive to think we all could get along
Am Am/F F
But sir I read your words and all I ask
G
Is hear my song
Pre-chorus:
I shook hands with a digger
on the wrong side of the world
With a wife at home who holds her breath
and brand new baby girl
And the digger fights for freedom
in a job that must be done
And I've never be more proud
to say that I'm Australian
Chorus
I'm so proud to be a poster girl
on the wrong side of the world
