verse 1 

G                         Em                      G 
I'm backing up the lorry, can't wait for night to come 
G                              Em               G 
I'm sweeping out the back yard on a Friday afternoon 
G                              Em              G6          Em 
We'll gather round the players and we'll head off for the stars 
C                  D       Dsus4         G 
Pack the van with poetry, drums and the guitars 


verse 2 

G                                Em             G 
We'll take Billy for the whisky, Willie for the door 
G                                      Em                 G 
We'll take Mary Kate and Lizzy for the dancing round the floor 
G                           Em         G6     Em 
We'll turn this empty hall into city full of lights 
C                    D                 Dsus4           G 
And lift the summer spirits through the passing of the night 


C          D            C          G 
There was laughing, and there were tears 
C                  Em            Bm     D 
There were so many shattered hopes and dreams 
C             D            C   G 
But there was treasure and 40 years 
G             D               G 
In the place where the rivers run 


verse 3 

G                             Em                  G 
We'll hammer on the two-step, we'll lay it on the snare 
G                        Em               G 
Romancing the accordion, waltzing out the aires 
G                        Em          G           Em 
These sacred swaying anthems, within our lover's grasp 
C                   D            Dsus4            G 
Stripping down the willow to the footsteps of the past 


C          D            C          G 
There was laughing, and there were tears 
C                  Em            Bm     D 
There were so many shattered hopes and dreams 
C             D            C   G 
But there was treasure and 40 years 
G             D               G 
In the place where the rivers run

Bridge 

G                           C          Em 
We were kings and queens, the reels go round 
Em7                            C       D 
It's the badge of our culture, say it loud 
          C          D           C            G6 
And it's all in the gift of the young and the proud 
G                      D      G 
In the place where the rivers run 


verse 4 

G                                Em              G 
We're loading out the back door, now the hour is come 
G                                 Em                    G 
Driving through the black hills with the red and rising sun 
G                               Em      G6       Em 
There's a river and a distance, far as eyes can see 
C                 D                 Dsus4    G
