Verse 1
F
C
the banks of the Georges River
F
C
Down where the cattle trucks rattle past
He was fishing and thinking,
F
C
lost in that water
Am
C
F
C
Clear and clean and moving fast
His mind turned to love
F
C
and all of its failings
Every mistake somehow a
F
C
mirror of the last
You're either tied to the mast
F
C
or you're over the railing
Am
C
F
C
That even a joker needs a queen of hearts
F
C
The first time you kissed
C
F
C
G
Everything in the world standing still
F
C
The truth in your words
C
F
C
G
Clear like a bell way across
C

C
the hill
He had trouble hanging on
F
C
to all the things he had promised
And trouble keeping money,
F
C
and trouble staying true
Surely there's a time for
F
C
a man to be honest
Am
C
Oh, surely next time,
F
C
you'd know what to do
F
C
The first time you kissed it
C
F
C
G
Everything in the world standing still
F
C
Your truth in your words

We're like a bell when we cross

the hill
From this day on,
F
C
they would be more careful
C
F
C
they would say what they mean
G
C
To let love in the door,
F
C
you better have your house ready
Am
C
To let love in the door,
F
C
you better have your house clean
F
C
But the first time you kiss it,
C
F
C
G
Everything in the world standing still
F
C
The truth in your words
C
F

Clear like a bell way across the hill
