Back on the Grader Sara Storer
[Am]Hav[D]e you seen the old stockman at the functions and balls
[Am]He drinks while they serve him and he sleeps where he falls
[D]He'll be crook sunday but he'll turn up monday
[E]Th[Am]rough he wonders if one day he'll bother at all
[Am]Cau[F]se[C] they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
[D]An[Am]d he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
[F]An[C]d if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
[E]An[Am]d he's back he's back on the grader again
[D] [Am] [F] [Am] [E] [Am] [D]He got married young on a wing and a prayer
[Am]And it promised the world but they didn't go there
[D]'Cos the wet season ends and away like the damp
[E]He[Am] shoulders his saddle and he's back in the camp
[Am]Cau[F]se[C] they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
[D]An[Am]d he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
[F]An[C]d if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
[E]An[Am]d he's back he's back on the grader again
[D]He can't get the books cause he can't read or write
[Am]And he's to old for drivin' a road train at night
[D]The windmills to high and the fencings to hard
[E]He[Am]'s to proud for the garden to slow for the yard
[Am]Cau[F]se[C] they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
[D]An[Am]d he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
[F]An[C]d if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
[E]An[Am]d he's back he's back on the grader again
Chorus
[Am]Cau[F]se[C] they've turned out the horses the whole bloody plant
[D]An[Am]d he'd ride a bike if he could but he can't
[F]An[C]d if you live to chase cattle you'll die where you are
[E]An[Am]d he's back he's back on the grader again
