Verse 1
D
A
F#m
young man I carried my pack
A
E
A
And I loved the free life of a rover
E
From the Murray's Green Basin
D
A
to the Dusty Island back
E
A
I was my Matilda all over
D
A
D
A
E
D
A
Then in 1915 my country said son
E
It's time to stop ramblin'
D
A
there's work to be done
So they gave me a tin hat
F#m
D
A
E
F#m
an d they gave me a gun
A
E
A
E
A
And they sent me away to the war
D
A
And the band played Waltzing Matilda
D
E
As we sailed away from the cave
D
And amidst all the tears,
A
F#m
the shouts and the cheers
A
E
A
E
A
We sailed off for Gallipoli
D
A
E
A
How well I remember a terrible day
F#m
A
How the blood stained the
E
A
sand and the water
D
A
And how in that hell
E
D
were they called so flabby
A
We were butchered like
E
A
lambs at the slaughter
E
Johnny Turk, he was ready,
D
he primed himself wild
A
E
He chased us with bullets
D
A
and he rained us with shells
D
And in five minutes flat,
A
he'd blown us all to hell
F#m
A
E
A
Then he blew us right back to Australia
D
A
D
A
But the barn played Waltzing Matilda
D
E
As we stopped to bury our slain
D
And we buried ours,
E
A
F#m
and the Turks buried theirs
A
E
A
And we started all over again
D
Now those that were left,
A
F#m
well we tried to survive
A
E
A
In a mad world of blood, death and fire
D
A
E
And for ten weary weeks,
D
I kept my self alive
A
E
A
But around me, the corpses piled high
E
Then a big turkey shell
D
knocked me arse overhead
A
E
D
And when I woke up in the hospital bed
A
D
And saw what it had done
A
F#m
Oh, I wished I was dead
A
D
Never knew there were
E
A
worse things than dying
D
A
For no more I'll go waltzing Matilda
D
E
All around the green bush far and near
D
For the humpting and pangs
A
F#m
A man needs two lives
A
E
A
No more Walton, Matilda, for me
D
They collected the cripples,
A
F#m
the wounded, the maimed
E
A
E
A
And they shipped us right back to Australia
D
A
E
The armless, the legless,
D
A
the blind, the insane
E
A
Those proud -winded heroes of Silver
D
E
An d as our ship pulled
D
A
into Circular Keep
E
I looked at the place where
D
my legs used to be
A
And thank Christ there was
D
A
nobody waiting for me
F#m
D
A
E
A
D
To grieve and to mourn and to pity
A
D
A
And the band played Waltzing Matilda
D
E
As they carried us down the gateway
D
But nobody cheered,
A
they just stood and stared
F#m
A
E
A
Then they turned all their faces away
D
A
And now every April I sit on my porch
D
A
And I watch the parade pass be fore me
E
And I watch my old comrades,
D
A
how proudly they march
E
A
Reliving old dreams of past glory
E
And the old men march slowly,
D
A
all bent stiff and sore
E
The forgotten heroes
D
from a forgotten war
A
And the young people ask,
D
A
E
C#m
E
what are they fighting for?
F#m
A
E
A
And I ask myself the same question
D
F#
A
And the band played waltz in Matilda
D
E
And the old man answered to the call
D
E
D
A
But year after year their num
E
F#m
bers get fewer
A
E
A
Someday no one will march at all
Waltzing Matilda,
A
waltzing Matilda
Who'll go a -waltzing Matilda with me
A
The ghosts may be heard
D
A
F#m
as you pass the boulevard
A
E
Oh, come a -waltzing Matilda
D
F#m
D
A
D
A
with me you
