Now when
G
I was a C
young man I G
carried me e

G
lived the free D
life on the G
roverFrom the Murray's green
C
basin to the G
dusty oute
backWell, I

overThen in
D
1915 me C
country said, G
SonIt's
D
time you stopped rambling, there's C
work to be G
doneSo they gave me a
C
tin hat, and they G
gave me a e
gunAnd they
G
marched me awD
ay to the G
warG
And the band played C
Waltzing MatG
ildaAs the ship pulled aw
C
ay from the D
quayAnd ami
C
dst all the ca
heers, the flag-wG
aving and te
earsWe
G
sailed off for D
GallipoG
liAnd how
G
well I reC
member that G
terrible e
dayHow our
G
blood stained the D
sand and the G
waterAnd of how in that
C
hell that they G
call Suvla e
BayWe were
G
butchered like D
lambs at the G
slaughterJohnny
D
Turk he was waiting, he'd C
primed himself G
wellHe
D
showered us with bullets, and he C
rained us with G
shellAnd in five minutes
C
flat he'd G
blown us all to e
hellNearly
G
blew us right D
back to AustrG
aliaG
But the band played C
Waltzing MatG

C
bury our D
slainC
We buried a
ours, and the G
Turks buried e
theirsThen we
G
started all D
over agG
ainAnd t
G
hose that were C
left, well, we G
tried to sure
viveIn that
G
mad world of D
blood, death and G
fireAnd for ten weary
C
weeks I kept G
myself ale
iveWhile ar
G
ound me the D
corpses piled G
higherThen a
D
big Turkish shell knocked me C
arse over G
headAnd
D
when I woke up in me C
hospital G
bedAnd saw what it had
C
done, well, I G
wished I was e
deadNever
G
knew there was D
worse things than G
dyingG
For I'll go no more C
Waltzing MatG
ildaAll around the green
C
bush far and D
freeTo
C
hump tent and a
pegs a mG
an needs both le
egsNo more
G
Waltzing MatD
ilda for G
meSo they
G
gathered the C
crippled, the G
wounded, the e
maimedAnd they
G
shipped us back D
home to AustrG
aliaThe legless, the
C
armless, the G
blind, the ine
saneThose
G
proud wounded D
heroes of G
SuvlaAnd
D
as our ship pulled into C
Circular G
QuayI
D
looked at the place where me C
legs used to G
beAnd thanked Christ there was
C
nobody G
waiting for e
meTo
G
grieve, to D
mourn, and to G
pityG
But the band played C
Waltzing MatG
ildaAs they carried us
C
down the gangD
wayBut
C
nobody a
cheered, they just G
stood and e
staredThen they
G
turned all their D
faces aG
wayAnd so
G
now every C
April I G
sit on my e
porchAnd I
G
watch the parD
ade pass beG
fore meAnd I see my old
C
comrades how G
proudly they e
marchRe
G
viving old D
dreams of past G
gloryAnd the
D
old men march slowly, all C
bones stiff and G
soreThey're
D
tired old heroes from a C
forgotten G
warAnd the young people
C
ask, "What are tG
hey marching fe
or?"And
G
I ask meD
self the same G
questionG
But the band plays C
Waltzing MatG
ildaAnd the old men still
C
answer the D
callBut as
C
year follows a
year, more old G
men disape
pearSomeday
G
no one will D
march there at G
alloutro - wolno, na melodię "Waltzing Matilda"
G
Waltzing Matilda, C
Waltzing MatildaG
Who'll come a-e
Waltzing Maa
tilda with D
me?And their
G
ghosts may be D
heard as they e
march by that C
billabongG
Who'll come a-Waltzing MaD
tilda with G
me?
