Capo 2

Intro:
D      A D
Yodel

Verse:
 D
Now I've been around Australia
            G           D
And I've travelled everywhere
                                       A
But there's one place I really like to go
           D
Where the land is big and wide
     G                 D
And tall dark ringers ride

On the plains of Peppimenarti
           A               D
Where the old Moyle River flows

 D
Tough riders there of course
       G             D
In a truck or on a horse
                                                A
And they'll really teach you things you didn't know
       D
It's excitement to the full
           G                 D
If you're out there chasing bulls

By the plains of Peppimenarti
           A               D
Where the old Moyle River flows

Chorus:
          G
And the Kangaroo still bounds
          D
On that rough and rugged ground
                                    A
The ant hills and the old pandanas grow
          D
Yes and everyday's a Sunday
            G
If you're catching Barramundi
         D
By the plains of Peppimenarti
           A                D
Where the old Moyle River flows

Instrumental:
D A D  D A D  G D A D
Yodel  Yodel

Verse:
 D
Now the men out on the stock camps
          G            D
Are the finest riders known
                                                 A
And they'll work four weeks without a break or spell
             D
They're the back bone of our beef steaks
            G             D
And I've mentioned this before

And it's a story that I'm
 A               D
Always proud to tell

 D
May the march of time never
      G              D
Ever bring to many changes
                                       A
To a way of life you people love and prize
          D
May the years ahead be good ones
         G                D
And you never lose your customs

With old Peppimenarti Hill
         A               D
