[Verse 1]
[G]From St Kilda [Em]to Kings Cross
is [C]thirteen hours [Am]on a bus
I [G]pressed my face a[Em]gainst the glass
and [C]watched the white lines [Am]rushing past
And [C]all around me [D]felt like all in[Em]side me
And my [Am]bo dy left me
[C]and my soul went [D]running

[Verse 2]
[G]Have you ever [Em]seen Kings Cross
[C]when the rain is [Am]falling soft?
I [G]came in on the [Em]eve ning bus,
from [C]Ox ford Street I [Am]cut across
And [C]if the rain don't [D]fall too hard
ev[Em]'ry thing shines j[Am]ust like a postcard
[C]Ev 'rything goes [D]on just the same
[G][C][G]

I [G]wanna see the [Em]sun go down
[C]from St Kilda [Am]Es planade
[G]Where the beach needs [Em]re construction,
[C]where the palm trees hav[Am]e it hard
I'd [C]give you all of [D]Sydney Harbour,
[Em]all that land, and a[Am]ll that water
[C]For that one sweet [D]promenade
