INTRO
F#m A
There's an old John Deere underneath a tree,
D(add9)
500 acres, my dad and me.
F#m A
Worked this land until we hurt,
D(add9) F#m A D(add9)
Trying to make a living out of plain old dirt.
F#m A
Well he didn't say nothin' when momma left,
D(add9)
Just kept his feelings to himself.
F#m A
His pride was hurt, his heart was broke,
D(add9)
He sits and he rolls another smoke
E D
Said: Son, this is all I know.
E D
And I guess it goes to show.
Esus
He said:
A E
We were born to survive outback life,
Bm D
Generations of toil and strife.
A E D
We don't know any other way.
A E
When the sun beats down so damn hard,
Bm D
Its 40 degrees in the holdin' yard.
A E
Got a 303 and a 4 wheel drive,
D F#m A D(add9)
Livin' out here, we were born to survive.
F#m A D(add9)
Born to survive.
F#m A
Well a friend of mine named Willy Grace,
D(add9)
Held an auction at his old place.
F#m A
The crowd gathered at a quarter to three,
D(add9)
And walked away with his memories but:
E D
Something keeps him hanging on,
E D
Even when all hope was gone.
Esus
He'd say:
A E
We were born to survive outback life,
Bm D
Generations of toil and strife.
A E D
We don't know any other way.
A E
When the sun beats down so damn hard,
Bm D
Its 40 degrees in the holdin' yard.
A E
Got a 303 and a 4 wheel drive,
D E
Livin' out here, we were born to survive.
