Verse 1
G 
The sunshine
in the southeast
There's rain to the north -west,
C

G 
The sleeping Bogan River
C 
winds its gentle track
Em 
And the locals said
D 
C 
they knew that I'd be back
G 
Cause once you've crossed
the North Bergen Bridge
And stood on the dust
of an ancient red ridge
D 
C 
Oh, the locals know
Em 
D 
C 
the outback calls you back
D 
G 
They knew that I'd be back
Black feet on the red dust
Walk an ancient land
C 
Never tamed and hard to understand
G 
The gucci and the red gum
C 
Stand in silhouette
Em 
And I know the dreaming
D 
C 
isn't over yet
G 
Cause once you crossed
the Norfolk Bridge
And stood on the dust
of an ancient red ridge
D 
C 
But all the locals know
Em 
D 
C 
The outback calls you back
D 
They knew that I'd be
G 
back

solitary and small
Em 
And in  the stillness hear
D 
G 
C 
the distant call
G 
Once you've crossed the Norfolk Bridge
And stood on the dust
of an ancient red bridge
D

Whoa -oh, the locals know
Em

And stood on the dust
of an ancient red ridge
