Flame Trees Cold Chisel
Intro: A E A E
[A]The kids are [B]driving and Saturday afterno[E]on just passed me by
[A]I'm just [B]savouring fam[E]iliar sights
[A]We shared some [B]history, [E]this town and I
A B G#m Av
And I can't stop that long-forgotten feeling of her
[A]In time to book a r[B]oom and stay t[E]onight
[A]Number 1 is to f[B]ind some friends and say "[E]you're doing well --
[A]After all this t[B]ime you boys look just the s[E]ame"
[A]Number 2 is t[B]he Happy Hour at one of two [E]hotels
A B G#m Av
And settle in to play "Do you remember so-and-so"
[A]Number 3 is never s[B]ay her name[E]
CHORUS:
And oh the [A]flame trees'll [B]blind a weary [F#m]driver
Av B E
And there's nothing that can set fire to this town
There's no ch[A]ange, there's no p[B]ace, every[C#m]thing within its pl[E]ace,
Just makes it h[A]arder to be[B]lieve that she won't [E]be around
[A]Oh, [B]who needs that sentimental b[E]ullshit anyway
[A]It takes more than just a [B]memory to m[E]ake me cry
[A]And I'm happy just to s[B]it here at a t[E]able with old friends
[A]And see which one of us can tell the biggest l[B]ies[E]
[A]And there's a girl, she's fallin' in love[B] near where the [B]pianola stands
[A]With a young local factory auto worker [B]-- just[E] holdin' hands
And I'm wo[A]ndering if he'll [G#m]go or if he'll s[B]tay
[C]Do you rem[G]ember, nothing [C]stopped us on the [G]field in our [D]day[E]
