Chords

[Intro] C Bm Am F G C [Verse]
C				F
I'm a singer from down under and it isn't any wonder

C					G
That I like a can or two of tooheys old

		 D
I've sung my way about, from the bush to the opera house

		    G
And tomorrow's just another town to show

C					       F
Bush ballads are my life oh I sing 'em all the time

C				G
Stories of our people and our land
Spent a lot of time at home, cause I was country born
					C
And it's helped me such a lot to understand

           F
Hey I'm a singer from down under on the move

                                                     G
Oh I like the life I'm livin' given under skies of blue

F                                        C        A
May the Southern Cross in freedom ever shine

F                              C
My song is for Australia every time
[Instrumental] C F C A F G C
C                                         F
I was never really lazy, but the neighbours thought me crazy

C                                              G
Cause I dreamed about a life of travellin' round

			D
A dream that made me move, seemed the natural thing to do

				    G
So at twenty one I finally left the land

           C		                    F
Some said 'twas rather risky but I married in the fifties

	C		G
And in 1954 we hit the road
We went out for a 3 month trial, but that cagin' country mile
				      C
Has forever since just kept us on the go

           F
Hey I'm a singer from down under on the move

                                                      G
Oh I like the life I'm livin' given under skies of blue

    F                                   C       A
May the Southern Cross in freedom ever shine

F                       G7      C            A
My song is for Australia every time, my friends

F                      G
My song is for Australia every

C   Am  F G   C
time.
