Waltzing Matilda - Rod Stewart It?s not 100 percent correct; I did it in my way. But I think it?s playable and it sounds good. You have to listen to the song and figure it out for yourself, how you have to play the chords. This keyis not the correct key; it?s played in this key by Tom Waits Intro: F/Gm/F/Bb/F/F/G/G7/C/C7 Bb F 1.: Wasted and wounded, it ain?t what the moon did Gm F C F I?ve got what I paid for now Bb F See you tomorrow, hey Frank, can I borrow G C A couple of bucks from you to go F C F Gm F Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you?ll go waltzing Gm C Matilda with me 2.: I?m an innocent victim of a blinded alley And I?m tired of all these soldiers here No one speaks english and everything?s broken And my strength is soaking away to go Waltzing Matilda,... 3.: Now I?ve lost my St. Christopher Now that I?ve kissed her And the one-armed bandit knows And the maverick chinaman with the cold blooded signs And the girls down by the striptease shows go Waltzing Matilda,... 4.: No, I don?t want your sympathy The fugitives say, that the streets aren?t for dreaming now Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories They want a piece of the action anyhow go Waltzing Matilda,... 5.: And it?s a battered old suitcase To a hotel someplace And a wound that will never heal No primadonnas, the perfume is on Gm C An old shirt that is stained C7 F C F With blood and whiskey Bb And it?s good-night for the street-sweepers, F The nightwatchmen, flame-keepers Gm C C7 F And goodnight matilda, too Outro: Gm/F/Bb/Bb/F Gm C C7 F Goodnight Matilda, too
