A                      C#m7
Now’s not the time for wailin’
              D            A
While there’s water in the river
A                      F#m7          E
We’ll all lay down and cry when it’s gone
A         C#m7        D              A
I’ll be a jackass and laugh at every sunrise
A             E             A
Celebrate the day when it’s born

CHORUS:

A                          C#m7         D      A
And we’ll cruise one more time down the river
F#m7             D             E
While our hearts overflow with joy
A                       C#m7      D         A
And we’ll reminisce our days down Salisbury Street
D         A       Bm7       E
Salisbury Street, Salisbury Street
A                          C#m7          D       A
Yeah we’ll cruise one more time down the Murray
F#m7                 D        E
Don’t wave the river gums goodbye
A                      C#m7          D         A
Just thank ’em for the shade and the stories
D                    E       A
Tomorrow there’ll be time to cry

VERSE:

A                      C#m7
So untie the ropes my darlin’s
        D            A
There’s broken cloud today
A                         F#m7                E
And that lucky ‘ole’ will paint those billows blush
A                    C#m7     D             A
Don’t wanna miss the sundown shining on the water
A              E                   A
Chasing sneaky shadows through the bush

CHORUS:

A                          C#m7         D      A
And we’ll cruise one more time down the river
F#m7             D             E
While our hearts overflow with joy
A                       C#m7      D         A
And we’ll reminisce our days down Salisbury Street
D         A       Bm7       E
Salisbury Street, Salisbury Street
A                          C#m7          D       A
Yeah we’ll cruise one more time down the Murray
F#m7                 D        E
Don’t wave the river gums goodbye
A                      C#m7          D         A
Just thank ’em for the shade and the stories
D                    E       A
Tomorrow there’ll be time to cry
