LYRICS:  
  
B  
in the desert in the dry  
before the breaking of the rain  
the temperature in the shade  
  
                Em            C  G   D  
had reached a hundred and ten again  
  
B  
in the desert in the dry  
on the overland telegraph line  
don't take the law into your own hands  
  
          Em                 C G   D  
don't go looking for a fight  
  
A              A           
nah nah nah nah,   
  
B                     C#m              E  
  I've heard the bullroarers  
  
Intro chords 
  
  
in the desert, in the dry  
some sit so high  
long day's mile and the  
                        Em                  C G   D  
radio crackles and the bones bleached white  
  
         
it's a knock-em-down storm  
see the tin roof shake  
wild dog howls and the long grass  
                 Em              C G   D  
whistles and the tall trees break  
  
  
A              A           
nah nah nah nah,   
  
B                    C#m              E  
  I've seen the wild horses  
  
                    A      
I've heard the bullroarers  
  
B                    C#m              E  
  I've seen the wild horses
