Waltzing Matilda Chords

   
C            D       Em          C
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
G         Em         C      Em    D
Under the shade of a Cool-i-bah tree,
       G          D           Em              C
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
G             C        D            G
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

Chorus:
    G                 C
    Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
    G             Em         C          D
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,
           G          D           Em              C
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
    G             C          D          G
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

C           D          Em            C
Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong
G             Em          C       Em       D
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
       G          D           Em             C
And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag
G             C          D          G
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

(Chorus)

C           D         Em            C
Up rode the squatter mounted on his thorough-bred
G             Em       C   Em  D
Down came the troopers One Two Three
G                  D       Em                 C
Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag
G             C          D          G
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

(Chorus)

C             D       Em               C
Up jumped the swagman sprang in to the billabong
G            Em       C    Em   D
You'll never take me alive said he,
        G            D            Em           C
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
G             C          D          G
Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me?

Chorus

(slowly)
        G            D            Em           C
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
G             C          D          G
Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me?
