Biografía:
Folk punk versifier Isaac Graham is proof that the best things start at home. Armed with a Tascam 8-track recorder, an acoustic guitar and an irrepressible DIY ethic, Isaac recorded his debut album ‘Empty Vessels’ in the comfort of his lounge-room. The album, a beguiling mix of punk rock rhythms and strong lyrical narratives in the vein of artists such as Billy Bragg, Paul Kelly and Bruce Springsteen, is the culmination of three years spent honing his song-writing skills and gigging relentlessly.

“When I Find Gold” by Isaac Graham
Chords: Em (022000), G (320003), D (xx0232), C (x32010)
Capo V
Intro: Em, G, Em, G
Em G
He was born on the steps of the rum hospital
Em G
As the rains flowed down veins of Macquarie Street
Em D G C(4x)
His mother, exhausted, died in her sleep
Em D G(4x)
It was September fourteen eighteen twenty-eight
Em G
And on George Street that evening, as John Brodie was born,
Em G
Three men dug a tunnel into the Bank of Australia
Em D G C(4x)
A considerable sensation was excited in town
D G(4x)
John lost his mother while the bank lost its pounds
C D G
When he was twenty-three he moved to Ballarat
C D G
Looking for the gold and a pretty girl to have his children
Em D Em
But all he found was bureaucrats and taxes
C D G
Yeah well, they say we need a license to be rich
Instrumental: Em, G, Em, G
Em G
And they sent the troops from Melbourne with their sniders
Em G
They aimed their guns at good men and decent folk
Em D G C(4x)
And when that bastard Bentley killed Scobie in cold blood
C D G(4x)
We kept warm that night from the ashes of his hotel
Em G
And you could feel the hate and greed in the miasma
Em G
Lord, I heard they killed that boy that played the drums
Em D G C(4x)
But on Bakery Hill the Southern Cross flew high
C D G(4x)
But John Brodie lost his life before he could see that blue flag fly
C D G
His heart skipped a beat when the bullet hit
C D G
And the blood spilled from his chest onto the ground
C D Em
And as he lay in agony he stared up at the clouds
C D G
And he whispered to himself as he died
He said,
G C D
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
“When I find gold, oh, I’m gonna be a better man
G C D
When I find gold, yeah, we'll settle down and buy some land
G C D
When I find gold, oh, I'll put a ring upon your hand
G C D
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man
G C D G
When I find gold, oh, I'm gonna be a better man for sure.”
