Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
C Em G
Under the shade of a coolibah tree
C G Am F
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
<chorus>:
C G C
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
C F
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
C G
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me."
C G Am F
And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled,
C G C
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me."
C G Am F
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong,
C Em G
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee.
C G Am F
And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
<chorus>

Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred

Down came the troopers, one, two, three.

Up jumped the swagman, sprang into the billabong

"You'll never catch me alive," said he

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