                   Bm              E          D 
I think I hear the sounds of then, and people talking 
    Bm              E         D 
The scenes recalled by minute movement 
    Bm              E        D 
And songs they fall from the backing tape 
     Bm               E            D 
That certain texture, that certain smell 
 
To lie in sweat, on familiar sheets 

In brick veneer on financed beds 

In a room of silent hardiflex 

That certain texture, that certain smell 
 
 
E               Bm 
Brings home the heavy days 
Bm              D          E 
Brings home the night time swell 
 

Bm         D    E     G 
Out on the patio we'd sit 
Bm        D     E     G 
And the humidity we'd breathe 
Bm             D        E           G 
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane fields 
Bm        D     E        G       Bm 
Laugh and think, this is Australia. 
 
The block is awkward, it faces West 

With long diagonals, sloping too 

And in the distance, through the heat haze 

In convoys of silence the cattle graze 
 
That certain texture, that certain beat 

Brings forth the night time heat 
 
 
Bm         D    E     G 
Out on the patio we'd sit 
Bm        D     E     G 
And the humidity we'd breathe 
Bm             D        E           G 
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane fields 
A4                A               Bm 
Laugh and think that this is Australia.
