{artist: Banjo Patterson}
# from Campfire Songbook of Tampa Ukulele Society
1. [C]Once a jolly [G7]swagman [C]camped by a [F]billabong
Under the [C]shade of a [G7]coolabah tree
And he [C]sang as he [G7]watched and [C]waited till his [F]billy boiled
[C]Who’ll come a-waltzing Ma[G7]tilda with [C]me?
{soc}
{c:chorus}
[C]Waltzing Matilda, [F]waltzing Matilda
[C]Who’ll come a-waltzing Matilda with [G7]me?
And he [C]sang as he [G7]watched
and [C]waited till[F] his billy boiled
[C]Who’ll come a-waltzing Matil[G7]da with [C]me?
{eoc}
2. [C]Down came a [G7]jumbuck [C]to drink at the [F]billabong
Up jumped the [C]swagman and [G7]grabbed him with glee
And he [C]sang as he [G7]shoved that [C]jumbuck in his [F]tucker bag
[C]You’ll come a-waltzing Ma[G7]tilda with [C]me
{c:chorus}
3. [C]Up rode the [G7]squatter, [C]mounted on his [F]thoroughbred
Down came the [C]troopers One, [G7]Two, Three
[C]Where’s that jolly [G7]jumbuck you’ve [C]got in your [F]tuckerbag?
[C]You’ll come a-waltzing Ma[G7]tilda with [C]me.
{c:chorus}
4. [C]Up jumped the [G7]swagman and [C]sprang into that [F]billabong
„You’ll never [C]take me a[G7]live“ said he
And his [C]ghost may be [G7]heard as [C]you pass by that [F]billabong
[C]You’ll come a-waltzing Ma[G7]tilda with [C]me.
{c:chorus}
