Song Title: Ride On
Artist: Simply Bushed
This is an awesome and heartbreaking song
about drought by Simply Bushed.
This my interpretation only (and my first attempt at chords).
I would love to see any changes by more experienced people.
Am G
Cattle they fall one by one, as the sun shines down, cracking the ground
Am E
Cracking their skulls, pushing them into the ground
Am G
Well I’ve walked a thousand miles, across this country golden brown,
Am E
and never, have i seen it so damn dry
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait, to see the rain
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait, to see her again
Am G
Oh we crossed the Paroo, West of Telfer, and headed for the South
Am E
Just to find, the rivers were bone dry
Am G
Oh we headed along the darlings, a riverbed of dust
Am E
nothing to eat but bloody flies
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait, to see the rain
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait, to see her again
Solo
Am G
By Wentworth, I had lost, at least half, the bloody herd
Am E
I’m starting to think, that old mate Jack was right
Am G
But I know now, if I had of stayed, I would have lost the lot
Am E
I guess thats why, the others had to die
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait, to see the rain
C D
Ride on, Ride on
E Am
I can’t wait… to see her… again…
