Midnight Oil - At the time of writing

There’s ^F#mnothing much hanging from the tree in the Garden of ^DEden It takes a ^F#mlong long time for the fruit to ripen on the ^C#vine We ^F#mbetter get together or we’ll end up on the roof with a ^Bshotgun Because a ^Achance, we’ve only ^C#got one It’s ^F#mnever very smart to try and strip the bark from an ^Dold tree We’ve been ^F#mdigging up the dirt since the rocks of the earth were ^C#still warm Now ^F#mold king coal is dying, he was ^Bnever gonna last the long run You know a ^Achance, we’ve only ^C#got one
