Slim Dusty – Shell Be Right (Guitar)

       G                                   D
As the sun rose over Newport, that day in '83,

                                              G
the Boxing Kangaroo had found a place in history.

                               C
The wonder from down under had won that famous mug,

    G                                D            G
and here's the song we sang along in every Aussie pub.

N.C.      G
She'll be right, mate, she'll be right,

                                               D
just remember that you're an Aussie and you'll never give up the fight!

          G                                           C
When your backs to the wall, just give your all, each morning, noon and night,

          G          D           G
she'll be right, mate, she'll be right!

   G                                         D
Australia's own Jack Brabham, racing was his game,

                                             G
a mighty man behind the wheel, a legend he became.

                                     C
He won it once, he won it twice, but he kept going back,

      G                                   D                G
three times a Champion of the World, good on ya, mate, Sir Jack.

N.C.      G
She'll be right, mate, she'll be right,

                                               D
just remember that you're an Aussie and you'll never give up the fight!

          G                                           C
When your backs to the wall, just give your all, each morning, noon and night,

          G          D           G
she'll be right, mate, she'll be right!

     G                                       D
Now, Captain Allan Border, Australian of the year,

                                                      G
he took our team to victory, mate, and kept the Ashes here.

                               C
Following in the footsteps, tradition of the Don,

 G                                      D                 G
eleven blokes who give their most, with that you can't go wrong.

N.C.             G
Cause, she'll be right, mate, she'll be right,

                                               D
just remember that you're an Aussie and you'll never give up the fight!

          G                                           C
When your backs to the wall, just give your all, each morning, noon and night,

          G          D           G      D  G
she'll be right, mate, she'll be right!

    G                                 G                       D
Now all you Aussie battlers, when you feel you've had enough,

D                                D7                    G
things are never going right and life's a little rough,

                                     C
just get out there and try again and back yourself a first,

    G                                 D                   G
the Aussies always do their best when things are at their worst.

N.C.      G
She'll be right, mate, she'll be right,

                                               D

          G                                           C
When your backs to the wall, just give your all, each morning, noon and night,

          G          D           G
she'll be right, mate, she'll be right! Once again!

          G
