G		F			Bb		F		C
far too long I 	sat and watched the 	silly games you 	played


F	      	Bb		F		G		G
E - ven tho' I 	stood apart it's 	time I had my	say



v.2	I've been waiting for too long	to tell you when you're wrong
It's a faceless concrete jungle that awaits the journey's end
	I'd like to wish you good luck as the long road winds you in

Chorus:		Don't go to 	Syd - ney baby if you	know  what's  good  for 	you	I


		F		    	 Bb			C	C
		Have  my  fears  it'll 	end   in  tears  if  you	do


		C		C		Bb		Bb
		Don't go to 	Syd - ney it's a 	ci - ty without a heart	The

		F			  Bb			C	C
		Road's strewn with those guil-ty of mak-in' false 	starts



v.3	You're a victim just be told	come in from the cold
You're not the first to feel the lure of the ties of Sydney town
I wont be the last to laugh when they all come tumbling down


ch.2		Don't go to Sydney baby don't over-react
		I know you think that Melbourne is holding you back
		Don't look to Sydney to revive your lost career
		You won't get a chance up there if you can't make it here

ch.3		Don't go to Sydney baby it's a natural fact
		The people up there are obviously lacking in tact
		Don't go to Sydney you'll be sorry if you do
		It's got nothing to offer a clean living woman like you
