The Crow Flying Backwards Recorded by Chad Morgan Written by Brian Brennan
G Out where the bushman sings and those dingos howl D7 You can see the strangest things and I'll tell ya now C G That the strangest thing you ever will see you won't believe your eye D7 G Is the black crow flying backwards to keep the dust out of his eyes
I have seen a kangaroo thirsty from the drought D7 Hop into a country pub and buy the boys a shout C G He bought an extra dozen and put them in a pouch D7 G Then he gave a grin and left the pub hopping with a slouch
I've seen an old goanna play the didgeridoo D7 He played Old Susana come back to the Old Barcoo C G Then all the other goannas from the grandson to granny D7 G Join their hands and did a dance called the old goanna hootenanny
I have seen a black wombat throw a boomerang D7 At the nearest bank of clouds and make the thunder clang C G The lightning fell out on the ground the rain came tumbling down D7 G It was the greatest flood ever seen since Noah was around.
