Simplified version of the awesome Xavier Rudd song 'Storm Boy' - for beginners. It sounds good if you just
play the chords, if you can finger pick it sounds closer to the original. Epic song best enjoyed around a camp
fire with friends.
Pretty much just G C Em D throughout the whole song (except the 'sha la la' parts of the chorus)...
[Intro]
G C Em D
[Verse 1]
GWhen will you learn that the more that you take means the Cless that you have at the end of the day
EmStillness of the mind is so hard to embrace
DFreedom of the heart is what we crave
And we Gsit by the river with a cup of tea
Watch the Cmovement of the tide in the gentle breeze
EmPelican drifting slowly looking for a feed
Like Mr DPercival the storm boy, you to me
GKookaburra calls just like he knows
And I Ccall right back "Yes I'm home"
He's Embeen with me
He's watched me grow
Through those Drainy days and those rocky roads
[Chorus]
And now Geverybody smiles in the setting sun
And Csighs with contentment when the day is done
EmHand in hand
With the one you love
Feeling Dblessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sGing
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
[Verse 2]
It's Gtime for fire
Smoke and leaves
The Conly mosquito repellent we need
Pay Emrespect to the North the South the West and the East
Pay rDespect to the spirit of this whole country
GFreedom in the hearts of the young and brave
Who know Clittle of the journey of the diggers who gave
Their Emlives to the service and the government gains
So that Dwe could dance together on this beautiful day
[Chorus]
And now Geverybody smiles in the setting sun
And Csighs with contentment when the day is done
EmHand in hand
With the one you love
Feeling Dblessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sGing
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
[Bridge]
GOhh
EmOhh
DAye
Now the Gwinter seeps into my bones
And I Chear the call from the North
Yeah I will Emgo
Yeah I will Dgo
[Chorus]
And now Geverybody smiles in the setting sun
And Csighs with contentment when the day is done
EmHand in hand
With the one you love
Feeling Dblessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sGing...
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
Sha la Cla la la la la Dlah
We're just Emliving in this Dbeautiful Gworld
