INTRO
D G D G D
About a hundred years ago,
A7 D G D
A man came here in search of gold.
G D G D
And the shack he built is standin' still,
A7 D
About half a mile from Dumphy's Hill.
D G D G D
There ain't no-one for miles around,
A7 D G D
The bubblin' creek's the only sound.
G D G D
Well honey, I need a fix of you,
A7 D
Cause we've got some catchin' up to do.
G
Back to the shack and the mountain nights,
D A D
Wrapped in a rug by the fire light.
G
I need you baby, like I did back then,
D A D G D A D
Back to the shack, back where it all began.
D G D G D
There's a place we used to go,
A7 D G D
Down by the creek past the wombat hole.
G D G D
We'll lay the blanket on the ground,
A7 D
And I'll stay with you 'til the sun goes down.
G
Back to the shack and the mountain nights,
D A D
Wrapped in a rug by the fire light.
G
I need you baby, like I did back then,
D A D
Back to the shack, back where it all began.

INSTRUMENTAL
D G D G D
If these ancient walls could speak,
A7 D G D
They'd tell the tale of Growler's Creek.
G D G D
And maybe in a hundred years,
A7 D
They'd recall the lovin' we made here.
G
Back to the shack and the mountain nights,
D A D
Wrapped in a rug by the fire light.
G
I need you baby, like I did back then,
D A G
Back to the shack, back where it all began.
G
Back to the shack and the mountain nights,
D A D
Wrapped in a rug by the fire light.
G
I need you baby, like I did back then,
D A D
Back to the shack, back where it all began.
G D A
Ooooh, back to the shack.
D G D A D
Ooooh, goin' back to the shack.
G D A
Ooooh, back to the shack.
D G D A D
Ooooh, goin' back to the shack.
