Comment: The chords have been worked out from a bass point-of-view. So
the designation of majors, minors and 7th's may be wrong.
Intro:
[NC]Listen now to the wind babe
Listen now to the rain
I feel that water lickin' at my feet again
I don't want to see this town no more
Wastin' my days on the factory floor
First thing you know [live version repeats these lines]
I'll be back in Bow River again [live version repeats these lines]
Any time you want babe
You can come around
Only six days separates me
>From the great top end
I've been workin' hard
Twelve hours a day
And the money I save
Won't buy my youth again
I'm going for the heat wave
And the tropical rain
And a place where no man's
Puttin' on the dog for me
I'm waitin' on the weekend
Set of brand new tyres
I'm back in Bow River
Just where I wanna be
Ohh
Chorus:
Listen now to the wind babe
Listen now to the rain
I feel that water lickin' at my feet again
I don't wanna see this town no more
Too many years made up my mind
To go or stay
Right to my dying day
I don't wanna see another engine line
Too many years and I owe my mind
The first set of wheels
And back in Bow River again
First thing you know
I'll be back in Bow River again
Yeah
Break
x 4
I got the motor runnin'
I got the rest of my days
I sold everything I own
For just a song
So any time you want babe (Oh, Oh, Oh)
You can come around (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
But don't leave it too late
You just might find me gone
Chorus
I don't need the score
I'm goin' through the door
I'm gonna tell the man
I don't want no more
Pick up a fast car
And burn my name in the road
One week, two week
Maybe even more
I'll piss all the money
Up against the damn wall
First thing you know )
I'll be back in Bow River again ) x 3
