Intro: G C G C
He's s[G]taring down the barrel of another
desperate [C]day
He pulls on his b[G]oots no he c[D]an't walk
away
He's r[G]unning on empty he's knocked about
and b[C]ent
But he'll still be s[G]tanding when the r[D]iver
runs ag[G]ain
Is the s[G]pirit in the rock or p[C]ass the hat around
Is it f[G]reedom or the wallaby or a d[D]usty patch of ground
Is it W[G]altzing Matilda or a h[C]and upon your shoulder
Is t[G]his the s[D]pirit of the b[G]ush
She s[G]tares at empty colours just like the
day b[C]efore
It's been so l[G]ong, she can't t[D]ake it anymore
But she d[G]igs a little deeper and somehow
finds the st[C]rength
She keeps b[G]elieving there'll be b[D]etter days
ah[G]ead
Is the Spirit in the rock or pass the hat around
Is it freedom or the wallaby or a dusty patch of ground
Is it Waltzing Matilda or a hand upon your shoulder
Is this the spirit of the bush
Intro
There was a d[G]ay when young Ned Kelly stood
up for those opr[C]essed
Or when the b[G]rave young ANZAC's put their
courage to the t[D]est
Or is it [G]out there with the battler when he
[C]gives it one last try
It's t[G]hrough it's darkest moments you can
[D]see his spirit s[G]hine
Is the spirit in the rock or pass the hat around
Is it freedom or the wallaby or a dusty patch of ground
Is it Waltzing Matilda or a hand upon your shoulder
