|| Chords relative to Capo 2.

[Intro]
C  C/B  A7
   D    G

[Verse]
        G                                                   D
With my head stuck in the glovebox cursing, searching for a key
                                        C             G
When a voice said, “G'day Dusty, bloody well remember me?”
                         B7                C               G
I looked up, yes, it was Sonny, I couldn't place him for a while
          C               G             D               G
Cause his face was rather beaten from a pretty hard lifestyle.

[Chorus]
     C                D             C                  G
Yes, we'd been kids together on the farm, we were good friends
        C                 G                          D
But our paths have really drifted unbelievably since then
        G                     B7            C                  G
And our meetings seemed quite regular every two or three years now.
        C             G                   D               G
It gets harder now to pick up threads and talk to him somehow.

[Verse]
     G                                                D
With pride he spoke of old times and his family doing well
                                 C                G
One brother in a mansion, by the seaside with the swell
                           B7                 C              G
Oh, he'd won and lost some fortunes, some for better, mostly worse
    C                  G            D             G
Had hard luck with the horses and a never lasting thirst

[Verse]
         G                                             D
But he's always in the big time, on the up and up, you know
                                         C                 G
And he's always heading somewhere in the search for bigger dough
                         B7              C                 G
But his life of beer and brawling in the road camps in the mines
    C               G                 D                G
His life was not so great at all as I read between the lines

[Chorus]
     C                D             C                  G
Yes, we'd been kids together on the farm, we were good friends
        C                 G                          D
But our paths have really drifted unbelievably since then
        G                     B7            C                  G
And our meetings seemed quite regular every two or three years now.
        C             G                   D               G
It gets harder now to pick up threads and talk to him somehow.

[Interlude]
C   D   C   G
C   G   D   G

[Verse]
         G                                            D
But I've met him in the city in the midst of maddened rush
                                      C                 G
And I've met him in the big towns and small pubs in the bush
                        B7             C                      G
But my heart was rather saddened for a life near damn near destroyed
      C             G               D              G
I was looking at an old man, that I once knew as a boy

[Verse]
     G                                               D
We'd talked a while and I noticed how he checked the time,
                                       C         G
'The pubs would soon be open', but his offer I decline
                            B7             C                     G
So, he said, 'I'll see you, Dusty,' on the street we shook hands then
      C                 G        D              G
And I wonder what might happen before we'd meet again

[Chorus]
     C                D             C                  G
Yes, we'd been kids together on the farm, we were good friends
        C                 G                          D
But our paths have really drifted unbelievably since then
       G               B7               C               G
Oh, he reminded me of 'Sweeney', you've heard that song before
      C                G              D                G      C   G
As he gave a lurch and headed for the nearest swinging door.
