[D]I was born in a hat town, raised on the Warrego
It's [D]hard out here but you tough it out like an old brigalow
[G]
The [D]roads are straight & dusty and the [A]folks are much the [D]same
CHORUS:
[G]Roots run strong and deep out here in a [D]hat town
And we'll [G]carry on down through the years in a [D]hat town
Well it [A]might be Thargom[D]indah, it [D]might be Barclay [G]Downs
If there's a [D]pub and a store and [Am7]not much more
You're [C]livin' in an [G]old hat [D]town.
[D]Stuck out in a heat haze on a half mile sixty zone
Just a [D]rag-tag bunch of buildings made of wood and tin and stone
But [G]there's a swag of stories and most of them are true
Of [D]how the locals passed the hat around and [A]pulled each other [D]through
REPEAT CHORUS

Well we're [D]rouseabouts and drovers
We're [D]bushies tried and true
And we're [D]out here for the long haul
We're [A]not just blowin' [D]through
CHORUS:

[D]Oooo[Am7]h[G][D]

Livin' in a [D]hat to[Am7]wn, [G]livin' in an old hat [D]town
