Standard (EADGBE)

 Once a jolly swagman camp'd by a billabong

 under the shade of a cool-i-bah tree and he

 sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled

 You'll come a waltzing Ma-til-da with me

Chorus

  Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,

  you'll come a waltzing Ma-til-da with me and he

  sang as watched and waited till his billy boiled

  you'll come a waltzing Matilda with me

Down came a jumbuck to drink at the wqater-hole

Up Jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee

And he sang as he stowed that jumpbuck in his tucker bag

You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Down came the Squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred

Down came the troopers, one , two and three

Whose is that jumbuck you've got in ya tucker-bag?

You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

But the swagman he up and jumped in the water-hole

Drowning himself by the Coolibah tree

And his ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong

Who'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
