Burrumbeep Hill

D (4x) Am Em Up on Burrumbeep Hill I wait D With my back against the stone Am Em Wait for my people to come D Cross the plain below C Em I see kangaroos moving D And the eagle flies above C Em Only grandfather redgums know D A hollow tree to leave my bones Am Em In the long grass I sleep D And the wind it keeps Am Em Constant lonely echo D Old people are gone C Em Missing from this place D Still I love them so C Em Only grandfather redgums know D The songs of long ago Am Up on Burrumbeep Hill C Em Up on Burrumbeep Hill D I wait Am Up on Burrumbeep Hill C Em D Up on Burrumbeep Hill | C | Em | D | D | (2x) Am Em There at last I see them come D Cross the plain below Am Em Walking like we've done D Since the days of long ago C Em And I'm glad I'm not alone D In this battered land I roam C Em In this battered land I roam D I'm glad I'm not alone Am Up on Burrumbeep Hill C Em Up on Burrumbeep Hill D I wait Am Up on Burrumbeep Hill C Em D Up on Burrumbeep Hill Am Up on Burrumbeep Hill C Em Up on Burrumbeep Hill D I wait C Em Only grandfather redgums know D The songs of long ago
