AND THE BAND PLAYED WALTZING MATLIDA

Eric Bogle

C F C Am

When I was a young man I carried a pack C G7 C

and I lived the free life of a rover. F C Am

>From the Murray's green banks to the dusty outback C G7 C

I waltzed my Matilda all over. G7 F C

Then in nineteen fifteen my country said ' son', G7 F G7

There's no time for rovin' there's work to be done! C F C Am

And they gave me a tin hat and gave me a gun C G7 C

And they sent me away to the war.

Choruss

C F C

And the band played Waltzing Matilda Dm

As the ship pulled away from the quay, G7 F C Am

and amidst all the cheers, the flag waving and tears, C G7 C

We sailed off for Gallipoli

2.How well I remember that terrible dayHow our blood stained the sand and the waterAnd how in that hell they called Suvla BayWe were butchered like lambs at the slaughterJohhny Turk he was waiting, he'd primed himself wellHe showered us with bullets, and rained us with shell,And in five minutes flat, he'd blown us to hellNearly blew us right back to Australia

And the Band Played Waltzing MatildaAs we stopped to bury the slain 1


3 of 75 2/1/2008 10:41 PM

We buried ours and the Turks buried theirs,Then we started all over again

3.They collected the crippled, the wounded and maimed

And they shipped us back home to AustraliaThe armless the legless, the blind and insane,All the brave heroes of SuvlaAnd when our ship pulled in to Circular Quay,I looked at the place where my legs used to be,And thanked Christ there was nobody waiting for me -To grieve, to mourn and to pity.

And the band played Waltzing Matilda,As they carried us down the gangway,But nobody cheered, they just stood and stared -And they turned all their faces away.

4.And so now every April I sit on my porch,And I watch the parade pass before me,And I see my old comrades how proudly they march,Reviving old dreams and past glories,But the old men march slowly their bones stiff and sore,Tired old men from a tired old war,And the young people ask what are they marching for,And I ask myself the same question.

But the band played Waltzing MatildaAnd the old men still answer the call,But year by year more old men disappearSoon no one will march there at all.

Well, I don't know the Eric Bogle version, but I once had a tape of someTommy Makum & Ian Clency (Hope I spelled their names right..) live concertwhere they played this and they used the following cords. Just try 'em andsee if they fit. It's in a swingy 3/4 or maybe 6/8.

BEHIND BLUE EYES

The Who

Em G D C A

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man, to be the sad man, behind blue eyes Em G D C A

No one knows what it's like to be hated, to be fated, to telling only liesChorus

C D G C D E

But my dreams, they aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be Bm C D A

I have hours, only lonely, My love is vengeance that's never free

Em G D C A

No one knows what it's like to feel these feelings like I do, and I blame you Em G D C A

No one bites back as hard on their anger, none of my pain and woe, can show throughChorus

D Bm A E Bm G D

When my fist clenches crack it open, before I use it and lose my cool Bm A E Bm A E

When I smile tell me some bad news before I laugh and act like a fool D Bm A E Bm A D

And if I swallow anything evil, stick your finger down my throat Bm A E Bm A E

If I shiver please give me a blanket, keep me warm let me wear your coat

Em G D

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man C A

To be the sad man, behind blue eyes

Just yesterday mornin' they let me know you were gone, E Gmaj7

Susan, the plans they made put an end to you. A Em7 D A

I walked out this morning and I wrote down this s ong, E Gmaj7

I just can't remember who to send it to.Chorus:

D Bm7 E7 A

I've seen fire and I've seen r ain, D Bm7 E7 A

I seen sunny days that I thought would never end, D Bm7 E7 A

I seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, G Em7 A9 Asus A

But I a lways thought I'd see you again.

Won't you look down upon me Jesus, you've got to help me make a stand,Just got to see me through another day.My body's aching and my time is at hand,And I can't make it any other way.

Chorus.

Been walkin' my mind to an easy time, my back turned toward the sun,Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around.Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come,Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground.

I hope you had the time of your life (strumming G C D) X2

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind

Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial

HALLELUJAH

Rufus Wainwright

C Am

I've heard there was a secret chord C Am

That David played, and it pleased the Lord F G C G

But you don't really care for music, do you? C

It goes like this F G

The fourth, the f ifth Am F

The minor fall, the major lift G E Am

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

F Am

Hallelujah, Hallelujah F C G C

Hallelujah, Hallelu-uuu-ujah (Chords are the same for each of the verses)

Your faith was strong but you needed proofYou saw her bathing on the roofHer beauty and the moonlight overthrew youShe tied youTo a kitchen chairShe broke your throne, and she cut your hairAnd from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe I've been here beforeI know this room, I've walked this floorI used to live alone before I knew youI've seen your flag on the marble archlove is not a victory marchIts a cold and its a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah 17


19 of 75 2/1/2008 10:41 PM

There was a time you'd let me knowWhat's real and going on belowRemember when I moved in you?The holy dark was moving tooAnd every breath we drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God aboveAnd all I ever learned from lovewas how to shoot at someone who outdrew youIts not a cry you can hear at nightIts not somebody who's seen the lightIts a cold and its a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah

HOME AMONG THE GUM TREES

John Williamson

G Em

I've been around the world Am D7

A couple of times or maybe more Am D7

I've seen the sights, I've had delights G D7

On every foreign shore G Em

But when my mates all ask me Am D7

The place that I adore Am D7 G

I tell them right away G Em Am D7

Give me a home among the gumtrees Am

With lots of plum trees G D7

A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo G Em

A clothesline out the back Am D7

Verandah out the front Am D7 G

And an old rocking chair

You can see me in the kitchenCooking up a roastOr Vegemite on toastJust you and me, a cup of teaAnd later on, we'll settle downAnd go out on the porchAnd watch the possums play

Give me a home among the gumtreesWith lots of plum treesA sheep or two, a k-kangarooA clothesline out the backVerandah out the front 20


23 of 75 2/1/2008 10:41 PM

And an old rocking chair

C

There's a Safeways up the corner G

And a Woolies down the street D7

And a brand new place they've opened up G G7

Where they regulate the heat C

But I'd trade them all tomorrow G

For a little bush retreat D7

Where the kookaburras call

Give me a home among the gumtreesWith lots of plum treesA sheep or two, a k-kangarooA clothesline out the backVerandah out the frontAnd an old rocking chair

Some people like their housesWith fences all aroundOthers live in mansionsAnd some beneath the groundBut me I like the bush you knowWith rabbits running roundAnd a pumpkin vine out the backGive me a home among the gumtreesWith lots of plum treesA sheep or two, a k-kangarooA clothesline out the backVerandah out the frontAnd an old rocking chair

Give me a home among the gumtreesWith lots of plum treesA sheep or two, a k-kangaroo 21

No first of spr ing, no song to sin g Dm G C

In fact here's just another ordinary day. C

No April rain, no flowers' bloom, Dm Dm7

No Libra sun, no Halloween,No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring,But what it is, though old so new,To fill your heart like no three words could ever do.Refrain:I just called to say I love you.I just called to say how much I care.I just called to say I love you 23

Jamaica Farewell by Lord Burgess

[F]Down the way, where the [Bb]nights are gay

And the [C7]sun shines daily on the [F]mountain top

I took a trip on a [Bb]sailing ship

And when I [C7]reached Jamaica, I [F]made a stop.

But I'm [F]sad to say, I'm [Bb]on my way,

[C7]Won't be back for [F]many a day,

My heart is down, my head is [Bb]turning around

I had to [C7]leave a little girl in [F]Kingston town.

[F]Sounds of laughter [Bb]everywhere

And the [C7]dancing girls sway [F]to and fro,

I must declare, my [Bb]heart is there,

'Though I've [C7]been from Maine to [F]Mexico.

CHORUS

[F]Down at the market, [Bb]you can hear

Ladies [C7]cry out while on their [F]heads they bear,

Ackee*, rice, salt [Bb]fish are nice,

And the [C7]rum is fine any [F]time of year.
