4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 Don't go look-in' through, that old, cam-phor box, 3 4 wom-an, 4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 3 You know, those old things, on-ly, make you cry, 4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 4 When you dream, u-pon that lit-tle bun-ny rug, 3 4 wo-man, 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 -4 4 Makes you think, that life, has passed you by. 4 -4 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 There are days, when you wish, the world would 4 3 4 stop, wo-man, 4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 4 3 But then you know, some wounds nev-er heal, 4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 5 5 But when I browse, the earl-y pa-ges, -4 4 4 4 Of the chil-dren, 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 It's then I know, ex-act-ly, how you feel, CHORUS 4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 3 4 Hey, it's Ju-ly and the win-ter sun, is shi-nin' 4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 3 And the Coo-ta-mun-dra Wat-tle, is my friend, 4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 4 4 For all at once, my child-hood, nev-er left me, 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 'Cause wat-tle blos-soms, bring it, back a-gain. It's, Sun-day and you should stop, the worr-y, wom-an, Come out here and sit down, in the sun, Can't you hear, the mag-pies, in the dis-tance? Don't you feel, the new day, has be-gun? Can't you hear, the bees, mak-in' hon-ey, woman? In the spot-ted gums, where bell-birds, ring, You might grow old and bit-ter, 'cause you missed it, You know, some peo-ple, nev-er hear, such things. CHORUS Don't buy, the dai-ly pa-pers, any-more, woman, Read all a-bout, what's go-ing on, in hell, They don't care, to tell the world, of kind-ness, Good news, nev-er made, a pa-per sell! There's all the col-ours, of the rain-bow, in the gar-den, woman, And sym-phon-ies, of mus-ic, in the sky, Hea-ven's all a-round us, if your've look-in' But how can you see it, if you cry?
