Tom: G

G                       Bm   
Now's not the time for wailin
C                                G
While there's water in the river
G                      E              D 
We'll all lay down and cry when it's gone
G                Bm                     C  G  
I'll be a jackass and laugh at every sunrise
G             D              G
Celebrate the day when it's born 

[Chorus]
G                          Bm           C     G
And we'll cruise one more time down the river
G                  Bm          C  G
While our hearts overflow with joy
G                        Bm        C        G
And we'll reminisce our days down Salisbury Street
C         G        Am         D    D
Salisbury Street  Salisbury Street
           G                Bm          C      G
Yeah we'll cruise one more time down the Murray
G                     Bm  C       G
Don't wave the river gums goodbye
G                       Bm            C   G
Just thank 'em for the shade and the stories
C                    D       G
Tomorrow there'll be time to cry
 
[Verse]
G                      Bm
So untie the ropes my darlin
        C                G
There's broken cloud today
G                         E                   D  
And that lucky 'ole' will paint those billows blush
G                     Bm      C                 G
Don't wanna miss the sundown shining on the water
G               D                   G
Chasing sneaky shadows through the bush

[Chorus]
G                          Bm            C     G
And we'll cruise one more time down the river
G                     Bm      C    G
While our hearts overflow with joy
G                        Bm       C              G
And we'll reminisce our days down Salisbury Street
C         G        Am         D
Salisbury Street, Salisbury Street
G                          D              C     G
Yeah we'll cruise one more time down the Murray
G                      Bm  C      G
Don't wave the river gums goodbye
G                       Bm           C        G
Just thank 'em for the shade and the stories
C                    D       G
Tomorrow there'll be time to cry
