VERSE:

E E A A E E
A A city girl is happy with her friends and family life
E E B7 B7 E E
Appreciates a wine with him at night
E E A A E E
She tries to find the sparkle she searches but it's gone
E E B7 B7 E E
With lots of love she hopes he'll be alright
E E A A
Her man has gone all quiet he's not at ease
B7 B7 E E
He doesn't feel at home he's hard to please
E E A A
He get's itchy feet he's tired of noises in the street
B7 B7 E E
He needs to walk for hours through the trees

CHORUS:

E E A A
No a bushman can't survive on city lights
B7 B7 E E
Opera rock n roll and height of heights
E E E E
His moon shines on the silver brigalow
A A A A
Shimmers down the inland river flow
B7 B7 B7 B7 E E
Out there where the yellow belly bite

INSTR: E E A A A A B7 B7 B7 B7 E E E E

VERSE:

E E A A E E
He's working with his hands today on a building site
E E B7 B7 E E
He can smell the cypress on the floors
E E A A E E
It takes him to a sandy ridge out amongst the pines
E E B7 B7 E E
No shearin' no ploughin' anymore
E E E E A A
His kelpie dog is tired and fast asleep
B7 B7 E E
Tired of searching gardens for the sheep
E E A A
His master doesn't whistle tunes he's not in the mood
B7 B7 E E
His love for open spaces runs too deep


CHORUS:

E E A A
No a bushman can't survive on city lights
B7 B7 E E
Opera rock n roll and height of heights
E E E E
His moon shines on the silver brigalow
A A A A
Shimmers down the inland river flow
B7 B7 B7 B7 E E
Out there where the yellow belly bite


VERSE:

E E A A E E
He tries to please his woman the lady of his life
E E B7 B7 E E
He's standing at a party with a plate
E E A A E E
She finds him on the balcony staring at the moon
E E B7 B7 E E
An old familar face he can relate

CHORUS:

E E A A
No a bushman can't survive on city lights
B7 B7 E E
Opera rock n roll and height of heights
E E E E
His moon shines on the silver brigalow
A A A A
Shimmers down the inland river flow
B7 B7 B7 B7 E E
Out there where the yellow belly bite
E E
His moon shines on the silver brigalow
A A A A
Shimmers down the inland river flow
B7 B7 E E
Out there where the yellow belly bite
