[Verse 1]
C            G       C           F
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
C                             G
Under the shade of a coolabah tree
C           G             C                   F
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
   C                   G            C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
 
[Chorus]
C                 F
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
   C        Am         Dm      G
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
       C          G           C               F
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
   C                   G            C     G    C   G   C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
 
[Verse 2]
C         G            C            F
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong,
C                                          G
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee.
C           G            C                   F
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
   C                   G            C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
 
 
[Chorus]
C                 F
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
   C        Am         Dm      G
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
       C          G           C               F
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
   C                   G            C     G    C   G   C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
 
 
[Verse 3]
C           G         C              F
Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,
C                             G
Up rode the troopers, one-two-three.
    C         G              C                  F
"Where`s that jolly jumbuck, you`ve got in your tucker bag
  C                    G            C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. 
 
 
[Chorus]
C                 F
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
   C        Am         Dm      G
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
       C          G           C               F
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
   C                   G            C     G    C   G   C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
 
 
[Verse 4]
C             G            C              F
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong,
C                                 G
You`ll never catch me alive, said he
    C                G            C            F
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
   C                   G            C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me   
 
 
[Chorus]
C                 F
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
   C        Am         Dm      G
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
       C          G           C               F
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
   C                   G            C     G    C   G   C
You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.

You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
