Tonalidad: Bb major
Verse 1
Bb
Eb
For nearly sixty years I've been a cocky
Bb
Of droughts and fires and floods
F
I've lived through plenty
Bb
This country's dust and mud
Eb
Bb
I've seen my tears and blood
F
Bb
But it's nearly over now and now I'm easy
Eb
I married a fine girl when I was twenty
Bb
But she died in given birth
F
when she was thirty
Bb
There was no flying doctor then
Eb
Bb
Just a gentle old black djinn
F
But it's nearly over now,
Bb
and now I'm easy
Eb
She left me with two sons and a daughter
Bb
And a bone -dry farm
F
whose soil cried out for water
Bb
So my care was rough and ready
Eb
Bb
But they grew up fine and steady
F
But it's nearly over now,
Bb
and now I'm easy
My daughter married young
Eb
and went her own way
Bb
F
My sons lie buried by the Burma railway
Bb
So on this land I've made me own
Eb
Bb
I've carried on alone
F
But it's nearly over now,
Bb
and now I'm easy
City folks these days
Eb
despise the cocky
Bb
They say with subsidies and all,
F
we've had it easy
Bb
But there's no drought or starving stock
Eb
Bb
On a sewered suburban block
F
But it's nearly over now,
Bb
and now I'm easy you
