    Verse 1
    A city 
    girl 
    is happy 
    with 
    her 

    friends 
    and family 
    life 

    Appreciates 
    a 
    wine 
    with 
    him 
    at 
    night 

    She 
    tries 
    to find 
    the sparkle, 

    she 
    searches 
    but 
    it's gone 

    With lots 
    of 
    love 
    she 
    hopes 
    he'll 
    be alright 

    Her 
    man 
    has 
    gone 
    all 

    quiet 
    he's 
    not 
    at ease 

    He 
    doesn't 
    feel 
    at home 

    he's 
    hard 
    to please 

    He 
    gets 
    itchy 
    feet 
    he's 
    tired 

    of 
    noises 
    in the 
    street 

    He 
    needs 
    to walk 
    for 
    hours 

    through the 
    trees 

    Verse 2
    CHORUS 
    No 

    a bushman 
    can't 

    survive 
    on 
    city 
    lights 

    Opera 
    rock and 
    roll 
    and 
    height 
    of 
    heights 

    His 
    moon 
    shines 
    on the 

    silver 
    brigalow 

    Shimmers 
    down 
    the 
    inland 
    river 
    flow 

    Out 
    there 
    where the 
    yellow 
    belly 
    bites 

    Verse 3
    He's 
    working 
    with 
    his hands 

    today 
    on a 
    building 
    site 

    He can 
    smell 
    the 
    Cypress 
    on 
    the floor 

    It takes 
    him 
    to 
    a sandy 
    ridge 
    out 

    amongst 
    the pines 

    No shearin' 
    no 
    ploughin' 
    anymore 

    Verse 4
    His 
    kelpie 
    dog 
    is 
    tired 
    and fast 
    asleep 

    Sick 
    of searchin' 
    gardens 
    for 
    the 
    sheep 

    His 
    master 
    doesn't 
    whistle 

    tunes 
    he's 
    not 
    in the 
    mood 

    His 
    love 
    for 
    open 
    spaces 
    runs 

    too 
    deep 

    Interlude 1


    CHORUS 
    Verse 5

    He 
    tries 
    to please 
    his 

    woman 
    the 
    lady 
    of 
    his 
    life 

    He's standing 
    at 
    a 
    party 
    with 
    a 
    plate 

    She 
    finds 
    him 
    on the balcony 

    star
    ing 
    at 
    the moon 

    An old 
    familiar 
    face 
    he can 

    re
    late 

    Verse 6

    CHORUS 

    His 
    moon 
    shines 
    on the 

    silver 
    brigalow 

    Shimmers 
    down 
    the 
    inand river 

    Out 
    there 
    where the 
    yellow 

    belly 
    bites

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
