[Verse 1]
D            A       D           G
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
D                    A7
Under the shade of a coolibah tree
   D          A           D               G
He sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"

D                 G
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
D             Bm         Em         A
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
   D          A           D               G
He sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"


[Verse 2]
D           A          D            G
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong
D                         A7
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
   D          A           D              G
He sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker-bag:
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"

D                 G
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
D             Bm         Em         A
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
   D          A           D              G
He sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker-bag:
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"


[Verse 3]
D           A         D              G
Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred
D                     A7
Up rode the troopers: one, two, three
 D                  A            D                  G
"Where's that jolly jumbuck that you've got in your tucker bag?
D                        A7         D
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"

D                 G
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
D             Bm         Em         A
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
 D                  A            D                  G
"Where's that jolly jumbuck that you've got in your tucker bag?
D                        A7         D
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"


[Verse 4]
D             A           D               G
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong
 D                     A7
"You'll never take me alive!", said he
        D            A            D            G
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong:
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"

D                 G
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
D             Bm         Em         A
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
    D            A            D            G
His ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
 D                        A7         D
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me"
