SLIM DUSTY – WALTZING MATILDA 1983 by Australian country singer Slim Dusty 1927 - 2003

[INTRO]
D A D A

[Verse 1]
D A D G
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
D A
Under the shade of a cool bah 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 Mathilda with me

[Chorus]
D G
Waltzing Mathilda, waltzing Mathilda,
D Bm Em A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
D A D G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A D A D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.

[Verse 2]
D A D G
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong,
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,
D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.


[Chorus]
D G
Waltzing Mathilda, waltzing Mathilda,
D Bm Em A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
D A D G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A D A D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.

[Verse 3]
D A D G
Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
D A
Up rode the troopers, one-two-three.
D A D G
"Where`s that jolly jumbuck, you`ve got in your tucker bag
D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.


[Chorus]
D G
Waltzing Mathilda, waltzing Mathilda,
D Bm Em A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
D A D G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A D A D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.

[Verse 4]
D A D G
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong,
D A
You`ll never catch me alive, said he
D A D G
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me


[Chorus]
D G
Waltzing Mathilda, waltzing Mathilda,
D Bm Em A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
D A D G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A D A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.

[Chorus]
D G
Waltzing Mathilda, waltzing Mathilda,
D Bm Em A
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
D A D G
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
D A D A D A D
You`ll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me.
