When Musterings In Full Swing Chords

(ver. 1)
Slim Dusty
[Intro]
G D  D  G
 
[Verse]
 
G                                                     D
There's talk from up the Cooper, of a flood at Durham Downs
                            C                  G
And also at Karmona, just a little bit further down.
                                                            C
There's been big rains away up north round Longreach and at Jundah.
                           G              D                 G
With a bit of luck it will be our turn to hear the sound of thunder.
 
[Chorus]
 
       D                                            C              G
And it won't be long till the holes are full, and a shine on every hide
   A7                                                D
Of cattle who in a few short months, would've surely died.
        C                              G                 C
Now the Cooper's coming down, and will flood out all the flats.
                       G                 D              G
Stock that were almost written off, will now be sold as fats. Hey
 
[Interlude]
G D  D  G
 
[Verse]
 
     G                                                        D
Soon it'll be time to muster our plant, and grease up all the packs.
                                   C                G
Get out our bells and hobbles with greenhide hobble straps.
                                                              C
Break some colts and make some ropes, and get everything just right.
                             G                  D             G
Hey. the Cooper's coming down they say so we'll hit the rum tonight.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             D                             C                   G
And when the river flats are full of fats, mustering's in full swing.
        A7                                                  D
You can bet ten bob you'll see a mob, with me riding on the wing.
     C                                          G                  C
Then late at night when all is quiet, round the mob you'll hear me sing.
                           G               D                   G
In the branding yard, on a bronco horse, a greenhide rope I'll swing. Hey
 
[Interlude]
G D  D  G
 
[Verse]
 
            G                                                         D
There'll be cigarette swags and carbide lights in packhorse mustering camps.
                               C                        G
Mobs of cleanskin mickeys, and nights that are cold and damp.
                                                                   C
Ah but we'll be there cause we don't care what the future it might bring.
                         G                 D                   G
Hey, the cooper's coming down old mate and mustering's in full swing. Hey
 
[Chorus]
 
            D                                  C                   G
And when the river flats are full of fats, the mustering's in full swing.
        A7                                                  D
You can bet ten bob you'll see a mob, with me riding on the wing.
     C                                          G                  C
Then late at night when all is quiet, round the mob you'll hear me sing.
                     G                D                   G        G
of good times on the Cooper mate when mustering’s in full swing.

       C                   G               D                   G
In the branding yard, on a bronco horse, a greenhide rope I'll swing. Hey
 
[Outro]
