Standard (EADGBE)
Voices cry out, shells of houses
White faced children, hungry eyes
The cruel sea calls to the unwilling traveller
Who would look for the road to survival
Chorus 1
Hold my hand a little longer
Take one last look out over the fields
To the reds and the browns of diamond mountain
Bring the smell and the sound to your station
Chorus 2
I will be here when you need me
I will be here in the pouring rain
I will be here on diamond mountain
Verse 2
They bring their song line to Australia
Scattering magical airs cities towns
The dreaming road to diamond mountain
An ordinary wonder on the heather ground
Chorus 1
Chorus 2
Verse 3
He kisses his love on diamond mountain
The mad wind whistles bushes stones
Like two March swallows back on thr mountain
Come full circle at last heaven, home
