 C                       G             Am                           F 
Once a jolly swagman camped beside a billabong
(Hobo, travelling contractor)             (a lakeshore)
 C                 Am               G                   G7 
Under the shade of coolibah tree
                                      (a kind of tree they don?t have here)
               C                   G                     Am                           F 
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
                                        (billy=coffee. No Starbucks in the outback)
 C                                                 G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
                                              (his bedroll and dancing partner)
 C                             F 
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
 C                         Am                   F               G 
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
               C                   G                     Am                           F 
*And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
 C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
verse 2
 C                       G             Am                   F 
Down came a jumbuck to dri-ink at that billabong
                        (sheep)
 C                           Am                   G                             G7 
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
                                                                            (apparent free lunch)
                     C                   G                     Am                           F 
And he sang as he stuffed that jumbuck in his tucker-bag
                                                                            (that?s a bag for your tucker)
 C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus
 C                       G             Am                   F 
Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred
        (man who owns the sheep)                 (fancy name for horse)
   C                           Am                   G                             G7 
Up rode the troopers, one, two, three (the cops, guns drawn)
   C                                   G             Am                                 F 
"Who?s that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag?"
                                                  (oops no free lunch)
 C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
 C                             F 
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
 C                         Am                   F               G 
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
               C                   G                     Am                           F 
"Who?s that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag?"
 C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
 C                       G             Am                   F 
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into that billabong (splash)
   C                         Am                   F               G 
"You'll never take me alive!", said he   (he can?t swim)
                 C                   G                     Am                                     F 
And his ghost may be heard as you stroll beside that billabong
 C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus
         C                             G                 Am                                     F 
And that?s why this song will never be Australia?s national anthem
     C                     Am                       G                   C 
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
