D A7 Bm G
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
D
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree
D A7 Bm G
And he sang, and he watched, and waited till his billy boiled
D A7 D
You come a waltzing Matilda with me
D G D A7
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you come a waltzing Matilda with me
D A7 Bm G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A7 D
You come a waltzing Matilda with me
Along came a jumbuck to drink from that billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag
You come a waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus replace 2nd line with "And he sane as he "
Down came the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
Up jumped the troopers, One, Two, Three
that jolly jumbuck you got in your tucker bag?
You come a waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus replace 2nd line with "Who that jolly "
Up jumped the swagman and jumped right in the billabong,
never get me alive said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass on by that billabong,
You come a waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus replace 2nd line with "And his ghost "
