Slim Dusty – Murrimbidgee Rose Wodonga Wheres That Old Cobber Of Mine Im Lonesome For Sydney Tonight (Guitar)

F               C7                           F
Where the Murrumbidgee flows, and the golden wattles grow,

Bb                                F
  There lives the sweetest girl I know.

C7              A          Dm
She has eyes of azure blue and a heart so fond and true

G                        C
  my little Murrumbidgee rose.

F          D7        G
 She is my own sweet Murrumbidgee rose.

C7                  F
  She is as fair as any rose that grows

                         C7
at night I’m dreaming of rose dear

                          F
each day my love stronger grows dear.

           D7           G
and as the breeze sighs through the blue gumtrees

C7                           A
  and below the river calmly flows

D7                           G
  When we're canoeing on the river I’ll be wooing,

F           C7           F
  My little Murrumbidgee rose.

F         C7          F              C7
I'm gonna wander to a place way down yonder.

       F      D7 G       C   F
Called Wodonga,  hometown of mine.

             A                 Dm
Though there are no palm trees swaying,

   A        Dm             G        C
no ukuleles playing but to me it is divine.

F                         G
Nowhere could be greater, south of the equator.

            Dm            G            C7
Though I’ve heard the Croajingolong is fine

        F              Bb              F             D7
You can keep your Yarrawonga if you'll let me linger longer

   F      D7 G        C  F     F
In Wodonga,  hometown of mine.

             C                           F                  G
Where’s that old cobber of mine, kind of rough still he was fine.

       Bb                       A               Dm
He was not much for looks not a great hand with books

       G                               C
but he smiled and he styled, they were grand.

                                       F           Bb
Miss that old cobber I do, there’ll be no other so true

                                       F            D7
Through thick and through thin, he was there with a grin

     G7  C7        F    F
That old cobber of mine.

           F            Bb       F                             C
I'm mighty lonesome for Sydney tonight, Missing her more every day.

                                                                     F
I could picture the moon's silver light, and it shines high over the bay.

                  Bb       F                           C
I’d like to be at circular quay watching the ferries depart

                                                                 F
and the stars mirrored down on the sea, what a cure for a lonely heart.

           F                                     Bb
I miss the happy crowds, the traffic's roar, the places I hold so dear.

           G                                    C
I miss the surf that breaks on Manly shore, but they’re far away and I’m lonely here.

        F             Bb           F                               C
if only wishing could make it come true my heart would be filled delight

                                                                 F
But just at the moment I’m blue and mighty lonesome for Sydney tonight.

C                                                             F      F
Just at the moment I'm blue, and mighty lonesome for Sydney tonight.
