Intro: F5 / G5 / F5 / Bb5 / F5 / F5 / G5 / G5 / C5 / C5

       Bb5                     F5
1.:    Wasted and wounded, it ain?t what the moon did
            G5                  F5     C5   F5
       I?ve got what I paid for now
       Bb5                    F5
       See you tomorrow, hey Frank, can I borrow
         G5                    C5
       A couple of bucks from you to go
       F5                C5  F5        G5       F5
       Waltzing Matilda,   waltzing Matilda, you?ll go waltzing
         G5         C5
       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
              G5            C5
       An old shirt that is stained
       C5   F5     C5   F5
       With blood and whiskey
                Bb5
       And it?s good-night for the street-sweepers,
                F5
       The nightwatchmen, flame-keepers
           G5          C5  C5  F5
       And goodnight matilda, too


Outro: G5 / F5 / Bb5 / Bb5 / F5

       G5          C5  C5  F5
       Goodnight Matilda, too
