Esus4

On a back block down

Verse 1
Salisbury Plains
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
Ted was born in  1895
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Thrust from the loins on to rusty soil
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
And the cord was cut with a scythe
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
He said "People there are
city folk today
D D 
 
And they couldn't tell
Em Em 
 
shit from clay
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
A ripening crop of stobie poles
G G 
 
D D 
 
There's no regrets when
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
the memory roams
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
That earth is in me bones"

Verse 2
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
Esus4 Esus4 
 
Em Em 
 
Did his bit in   the first World War
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
Took the shilling to fight the Hun
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Mud up to his crotch in Flanders fields
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
And the gas eating out his lungs
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
He said "Me best mate died
hanging on the barbed wire
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
And when the attack was through
C C 
 
G G 
 
We took some prisoners to HQ
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
And shared a fag and a yarn or two
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
They were the same as me and you"

Verse 3
C C 
 
D D 
 
And I asked old Ted what history meant
G G 
 
C C 
 
Em Em 
 
As he sharpened his hedging shears
C C 
 
D D 
 
"What a bloody fool question that is my boy
C C 
 
Am Am 
 
I lived it for 83 years"
Em Em 
 

Verse 4
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
See him every year on Anzac Day
D D 
 
Swilling beers down at the
Em Em 
 
Rex Hotel
C C 
 
He'd laugh with his mates
G G 
 
and go deep in thought
D D 
 
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Where he went even he couldn't tell
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
He said "K  ing and Country,
cock'n'bull
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
We fought just to survive
C C 
 
G G 
 
The anger might have faded still
D D 
 
C C 
 
this feeling grabs me deep inside
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
I guess you could call it pride"

Verse 5
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
As a navvy on the line in the Nullabor
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
The Depression left its scars
C C 
 
G G 
 
Heaving cold steel rails in the burning sun
D D 
 
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
And freezing beneath the stars
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
He said "If you escaped
the susso queues
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
You had a hell of price to pay
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
And when time flowed like an open wound
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
I'd blow me dough on a Sat urday
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
And drink the pain away"

Verse 6
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
And I asked old Ted what history meant
C C 
 
Em Em 
 
As he sharpened his hedging shears
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
"What a bloody fool question that is my boy
C C 
 
Am Am 
 
Em Em 
 
I lived it for 83 years"
On Sunday arvo he'd sit and talk
D D 
 
Over a dozen cold West End
C C 
 
Of what was gained and
what was lost
Am Am 
 
D D 
 
And would never come again

Verse 7
Em Em 
 
He said "Money you know
it comes and goes
D D 
 
On booze and rent and fags
C C 
 
You can make a fortune on overtime
Am Am 
 
D D 
 
And lose it  all on the nags
Em Em 
 
But years of toil with a bunch of mates
D D 
 
You know it leaves you satisfied
C C 
 
Though we never moved a mountain
Am Am 
 
D D 
 
We sure gave it a try"
Em Em 
 
Pick the wheat from the chaff

Verse 8
D D 
 
And the steel from the scurf
C C 
 
Bm Bm 
 
And the honest man from the li  ar
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
If wisdom came by other names
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Ted was earth and fire
C C 
 
Em Em 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
Esus4 Esus4 
 
Em Em 
 
On the day that old Ted died
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
No- one would have known
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Buried in a pauper's grave
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
He lived and died alone
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
And the 727s roared overhead
D D 
 
With the drone of the angry
Em Em 
 
roads
C C 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
There seemed a pause for just a while
G G 
 
D D 
 
And the silence was heard
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
around for miles
G G 
 
D D 
 
And the silence was heard for miles
