                   Waltzing Matilda - Banjo Patterson
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: standard


D            A       Bm           G
Once a jolly swagman camp'd by a billabong
D         A7         D         A
under the shade of a coolibah tree and he
D          A           Bm              G
sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled
D                       A7          D
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me


D                 G          D
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
D             G          D            A
you'll come a waltzing Matilda with me and he          (chorus)
D        A7         Bm              G
sang as watched and waited till his billy boiled
D                       A7          D
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me


D            A         Bm           G
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the waterhole
D             A7           D               A
Up Jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
        D          A           Bm              G
And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag
D                       A7          D
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me


D              A         Bm             G
Down came the Squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred
D            A7          D            A
Down came the troopers, one , two and three
D              A            Bm             G
Whose is that jumbuck you've got in ya tucker-bag?
D                      A7          D
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me


D                 A              Bm         G
But the swagman he up and jumped into that water-hole
D           A7          D         A
Drowning himself by the Coolibah tree
        D             A           Bm           G
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong
D                      A7          D
Who'll come a waltzing Matilda with me?


this is a great aussie song, known of being always played at the rugby a... so hope it 
good... its not perfect but its a pretty easy version of the song anyway
p.s. on the last line of each verse you can add in a Dsus or something... it doesnt 
too bad... but thts for you to choose
