Waltzing Matilda Chords
Banjo Paterson 1893

C majorC      G+G    C majorC       FF
Once a Jolly swagman, camped a by a billabong
C majorC          G+G
under the shade of a coolabah tree
    C majorC      G+G        C majorC        FF
And he sang, and he watched, and he waited till his billy boiled
C majorC            G7G7     C majorC
you'll come a waltzing Matilda with me

C majorC         FF
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
C majorC       FF     C majorC     G+G
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
    C majorC      G+G       C majorC        FF
And he sang and he watched and he waited till his billy boiled
C majorC            G7G7     C majorC
you'll come a waltzing Matilda with me

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

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbre,
Down came the troopers, one, two, three,
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?"
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?",
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong,
"You'll never catch me alive", said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me."
