Along The Road To Gundagai, I'm Going Back Again To Yarrawonga, The Man From The Never Never, That Old Bush Shanty Of Mine - medley [Intro] F [Verse]
F                       A7         Bb            F
There's a track winding back to an old-fashioned shack

          G7      C7    F
Along the road to Gundagai.

          Bb                            F              D
Where the blue gums are growing and the Murrumbidgee's flowing

  G               C7
Beneath the sunny sky.

           F                  Bb
There's my mother and daddy a-waiting for me

        D7                        G            C7
And the pals of my childhood once more I shall see.

        F           A7            Bb                   F
Then no more will I roam when I'm heading straight for home

          G7      C7    F    Dm
Along the road to Gundagai.
[Verse]
          A
I'm going back again to Yarrawonga,

        D                 A
in Yarrawonga I'll linger longer.
I'm going back again to Yarrawonga.
          B7               E
Where the skies are always blue.

             A
And when I'm back again in Yarrawonga.

             D                    A
I'll soon be stronger, then old mahonga.

                      C#7           D     A
You can have all your Tennessee and   Caroline.

                   C#7              D          A
I’m gonna get some lovin' from that   mammy of mine

                                          B7      E        A
I'm going back again to Yarrawonga to the land of the kangaroo.
[Verse]
   A
My legs are kind of bode from horses that I’ve rode.

            B7
Through the saltbush and the sand,

              E
I've got that rock and rollin' beat from this rollin' saddle seat.

          B7          E           A
because I live in the Never Never Land,
[Verse]
           A
I've never travelled down to all your high-class towns.

            B7
because I'm right just where I am.

             E
Our town's a pub and general store, what’s the use of anymore?

     B7         E           A
Away out in the Never Never Land.
[Verse]
            A
And you can bet I'll be set.

                        B7
When I get back to that old bush shanty of mine

           E
There I'll be, where I’ll see folks so dear to me.

    B7                 E
And everything will be fine.

            A                       D
There'll be brother and sister, old mum and grey head dad.

  B7                                  E
I know they're the greatest pals that I’ve ever had.

         A                                               B7
and I'll hope and prayer and sigh, I’ll be there until I die.

        A        E         A       A
In that old bush shanty of mine.
