Family Farm.
This is my interpretation of this great song.
Please let me know of any changes that need to
be done and i will change. This is in a different
key to the cd, I think that it starts in E but
couldn't figure out all the chords,
if anyone nows them i will put it in the original key.
HAPPY PICKING

I rode the boundries of our place, for the very last time

I was leaving for Sydney on the mail train,

Three months later we had to put,

The family farm up for sale.
There was a five gallon mail box on a post by the road,

Where I turn up the valley, and wind my way home.
Em D C
I could see mum and dad arm in arm,
D G
In my memories of the Family Farm.
G D C D G
No horses, no valleys, no crossings, no Hinterland streams
G D C
Just a heart full of song, a guitar,
D G
And a swag full of dreams.
Em D C D G
In my dark little room i'd scratch out my letters to mum,
Am C D G
And apart of me drifted back north, with every single one.

months turned to years as i followed the call of the road

I was just passing through as i saw, that real estate sign
Am C D G
That very day i put my name on what had always been mine.
