The real people went away
 
Em                                Am
But I'll find a better word, someday
                        Em
Leaving only me and my dreams
    Am                  Em
My cattle and a resonator
Em
I drove all the beast down right under your nose
The lumbering footloose power
                   Am
The bull and the rose
       Em
Don't touch them don't try to hurt them
     Am                  Em
My cattle..............
C                    Am       C                              Am
I drove them by the crops         and thought the crops were lost
C          Am                Em
I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts
C            Am           C                     Am
And I set my watch            against the city clock
        Em
It was way off
 
G                          C          Am        C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
   C                       Am       C
It breaks a strong, strong mind
G                         C          Am        C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
C                           Am       C
It breaks a strong, strong mind
G
And anything less, anything less
C                      Am               C
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
 
Em                   Am     Em       Am
But the pain and frustration, is not mine
Em                 Am                 Em
It belongs to the cattle, through the valley
 
Dm
And when my cattle turns on me
         Am         Em
I was knocked back flat
Dm                              Am           Em
I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track
Dm                          Am                Em
Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand
Am              Em
I rose like a drover
Am                    Em
For I am in the end a drover
Am             Em
A drover by trade
Am                  Em       Am
When my cattle turns on me
        Em            Am
I am a drover, double fold
Am
My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone
Am
One, one, one, one, one, one ...
 
G                          C          Am        C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
   C                       Am       C
It breaks a strong, strong mind
G                         C          Am        C
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
G
It takes a strong, strong
C                           Am       C
It breaks a strong, strong mind
G
And anything less, anything less
C                      Am               C
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time
