5    5 -4-4    4 -4   5   4 -3  4    -4  -3     
Once a jolly swagman sat beside the billabong,
3 4    5    6   -5 5 -4 -4 -4    -4
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
4   -4  5   5   5 -4  -4  4 -4    5  4-3 4 -4 -3
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong
3      4    5  6   5   4-4-4    -3   4
You'll come a waltzing matilda with me


(REFRAIN)
6   6     6  4 3   8   8    8-8  -7
Waltzing matilda, waltzing  matilda
7       7   7  -7   7   7 7 -6    6   -5
You'll come a waltzing matilda  with   me

4   -4  5   5   5 -4  -4  4 -4    5  4-3 4 -4 -3
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me.
