Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong

D                             A
Under the shade of a coolabah tree

D           A             D                   G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,

   D                   A            D
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
[Chorus]

Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,

You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.

D                                          A                    
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee.

D           A            D                   G
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,

You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.

Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,

Up rode the troopers, one-two-three.

"Where`s that jolly jumbuck, you`ve got in your tucker bag

You`ll never catch me alive, said he

    D                A            D            G
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,

You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
