♫ Intro:

A augmentedA B7B7 E MajorE


♫ Verse:
     E MajorE      B7B7       E MajorE
The snow leases have expired in the mountains
    A augmentedA        B7B7    E MajorE
They’re all part of the Kosciusko Park
    A augmentedA             E MajorE
No more big mobs that way will be wand'rin
  F#F#               B7B7
No more will the mountain heeler’s bark
  E MajorE         B7B7     E MajorE
The mountain huts are now all deserted
  A augmentedA         B7B7    E MajorE
The mountain men have all disappeared
  A augmentedA             E MajorE
no yarns will be told in the lamplight
    A augmentedA   B7B7         E MajorE
No more early snow falls will be feared

♫ Chorus:
     A augmentedA    B7B7       E MajorE
There'll no more big mobs on the Bogong
                      A augmentedA
In the summer where the snow grass goes to seed
                  E MajorE
And the heather is bloomin' on the hillside
     A augmentedA       B7B7        E MajorE
Where the big old bawly bullocks used to feed


♫ Interlude:
A augmentedA B7B7 E MajorE


♫ Verse:
   E MajorE    B7B7      E MajorE
They say it’s all a part of progress
    A augmentedA         B7B7    E MajorE
To put out the stock and open up a park
    A augmentedA             E MajorE
But to me it's kind of quiet and lonesome
  F#F#                  B7B7
Without the whipcracks and the heeler’s bark
    E MajorE       B7B7     E MajorE
Or the bellow of the bull in the morning
    A augmentedA      B7B7       E MajorE
ringing clear on the nippy mountain breeze
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
And the sheep bells away in the distance
  A augmentedA      B7B7          E MajorE
to me these are the only sounds that please

♫ Chorus:
     A augmentedA    B7B7       E MajorE
There'll no more big mobs on the Bogong
                      A augmentedA
In the summer where the snow grass goes to seed
                  E MajorE
And the heather is bloomin' on the hillside
     A augmentedA       B7B7        E MajorE
Where the big old bawly bullocks used to feed


♫ Interlude:
A augmentedA B7B7 E MajorE


♫ Verse:
  E MajorE       B7B7         E MajorE
The Tooma station heard of a thousand head or more
     A augmentedA     B7B7       E MajorE
will not grace the mountain side again
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
and the sheep from Dromore and Bobundra
   F#F#            B7B7
will no more ramble over snowy plain
 E MajorE         B7B7      E MajorE
I know they say it's all a part of progress
    A augmentedA         B7B7    E MajorE
to put out the stock and open up a park
     A augmentedA                  E MajorE
but it's lonesome without sheep bells in the distance
    A augmentedA         B7B7       E MajorE
and without the whipcracks and the heelers bark


♫ Chorus:
     A augmentedA    B7B7       E MajorE
There'll no more big mobs on the Bogong
                      A augmentedA
In the summer where the snow grass goes to seed
                   E MajorE
and the tourists are hiking round the hillside
     A augmentedA       B7B7        E MajorE
Where the big old bawly bullocks used to feed


Tag:
     A augmentedA       B7B7        E MajorE
Where the big old bawly bullocks used to feed


♫ Outro:
A augmentedA B7B7 E MajorE E MajorE
