 Once a Jolly swagman, camped a by a billabong

 under the shade of a coolabah tree
        D            A               D               G
 And he sang, and he watched, and he waited till his billy boiled
 D                        A7         D

 Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong,
 D                          A
 Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
        D            A           D               G
 And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
 D                        A7           D
 "You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

 "You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
        D           A           D               G   
 And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
 D                        A7           D
 "You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".
 
 D            A        D             G
 Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
 D                        A
 Down came the troopers, one, two, three,
        D            A         D                 G 
 "Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?"

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

 Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong,
 D                       A
 "You'll never catch me alive", said he,
          D           A              D               G 
 And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,

 "You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".
