D Em7
Pastel red to burgundy and spinifex to gold
D
We've just come out of the mulga where the plains forever roll
Em7
Where Albert Namatjira has painted all the scenes
D
And a shower has changed the lustre of his land
[CHORUS]
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock in a beautiful country
Em7 D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock what an almighty sight to see
Em7 D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me
[Verse]
D Em7
Everlasting daisies and a beautiful desert rose
D
Where does their beauty come from, heaven knows
Em7
I could ask the wedgetail but he's away too high
D
I wonder if he understands it's wonderful to fly
[CHORUS]
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock in a beautiful country
Em7 D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock what an almighty sight to see
Em7 D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me
[Bridge]
D Em7
It cannot be described with a picture
D
The mesmerising colours of the Olgas
Em7
Or the grandeur of the rock
D
Uluru is power
[CHORUS]
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock in a beautiful country
Em7 D
And I'm proud to travel this big land like an Aborigine
Em7 D
And it's raining on the rock what an almighty sight to see
Em7 D
And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me
