intro: Em – G – A
[Verse 1] Em – G – A II I I
Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boilin' diesels
Steam in forty-five degrees
[Pre-Chorus] Em – G – A II I I
The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
F# (pause)
It belongs to them, let's give it back
Breaking Em – G – A
after two then chorus
[Chorus]
Em C G
How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?
Em C D (D7/Eb)
How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?
Em C G
How can we dance when our earth is turnin'?
Em C D (D7/Eb)
How do we sleep while our beds are burnin'?
[Post-Chorus]
Em C
The time has come to say fair's fair
G D (D7/Eb)
To pay the rent now, to pay our share
interlude 8x Em – G – A II I I
[Verse 2] Em – G – A II I I
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore, east to Yuendemu
The Western Desert lives and breathes
In forty-five degrees
[Pre-Chorus] Em – G – A II I I
The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact

It belongs to them, let's give it back
Breaking Em – G – A
