[Intro 1]
[Em][G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Time and tide
and [C]wind and [G]weather
Haven't made you [C]change [G]a lot
You're keeping [C]everything together
[G]Skin as thick as [C]ironbark[G]
[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]Standing proud
and [C]tall and stately
[G]Strong against the[C] winds of str[G]ife
But I've heard you're [C]feeling lately
[G]You've been cut right dow[C]n
by life
[G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
[C][G]
Your skin might be as [C]strong
as [G]iron
Heartwood might be [C]hard as stone
[G]But one cut and the blood
runs [C]red and living
[G]As any blood that eve[C]r flo[G]wed

[Verse 4]
[Em]The cold hard steel of [A]the axemans blow
The [Em]winds of trouble and [A]strife
[Em]Won't bring you down for
it's [A]well you know
[Em]You were born to survive

[A][G]
[C][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]Everything dead set again[C]st you
[G]Roots sunk deep in [C]stony [G]ground
When life takes more than
it present[C]s you
[G]Sink those deep roots [C]deeper [G]down

[Verse 6]
[G]Don't let life keep you from [C]living
[G]Don't let your [Em]heart [G]get [C]petrified
[G]Keep that lifeblood red[C] and flowing
[G]Keep your iron sou[C]l ali[G]ve

[Verse 7]
[G]Circles tell the tale of living
[Am]Hard[G] successes hard [C]defeats[G]
Each ring spins it's [C]tale of giving
[G]You're everything that thi[C]s world nee[G]ds

[Verse 8]
The [Em]cold hard steel of [A]the axemans blow
[Em][A][Em][A][Em][A][Em]
[A]The [Em]winds of trouble and [A]strife
[Em]Won't bring you down for
it's [A]well you know
You [Em]were born to survive
