Introduced some foreign plants
C G7
Familiar things are strange while strangers play upon the lawn
C F
And mother land has shed her tears for lives that never stood a chance
C G7 C
And Albert Namatjira cried, as we all cry the Native Born
G7 F
So bow your head old eucalypt and wattle tree
C G7 C
Australia's bush is losing it's identity
G7 F
While the cities and the parks that they have planned
C
Look out of place because the spirit's in the land
F C
Look out of place because the spirit's in the land
F
Do you remember Joseph Banks who stood upon this sacred earth
C G7
And what he felt inside when he looked around and saw
C F
the land to whom we give our thanks our mother land who's given birth
C G7 C
To trees and plants and animals he'd never seen before?
G7 F
So bow your head old eucalypt and wattle tree
C G7 C
Australia's bush is losing it's identity
G7 F
While the cities and the parks that they have planned
C
Look out of place because the spirit's in the land
F C
Look out of place because the spirit's in the land
F
But no one knows or no one hears the way we used to sing and dance
C G7
And how the gum trees stood and stretched to greet the golden morn
C F
and mother land still sheds her tears for lives that never stood a chance
C G7 C
And Albert Namatjira cried as we all cry the native born
G7 C
We cry the native born
