LYRICS:

B
in the desert in the dry
before the breaking of the rain
the temperature in the shade

Em C G D
had reached a hundred and ten again

B
in the desert in the dry
on the overland telegraph line
don't take the law into your own hands

Em C G D
don't go looking for a fight

A A
nah nah nah nah,

B C#m E
I've heard the bullroarers

[intro chords]


in the desert, in the dry
some sit so high
long day's mile and the
Em C G D
radio crackles and the bones bleached white


it's a knock-em-down storm
see the tin roof shake
wild dog howls and the long grass
Em C G D
whistles and the tall trees break


A A
nah nah nah nah,

B C#m E
I've seen the wild horses

A
I've heard the bullroarers

B C#m E
I've seen the wild horses
