Chord reference F, Dm, Gm, C

Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

I’ve [F]been around the [Dm]world a couple of [Gm]times or maybe [C]more I’ve [Gm]seen the sights and [C]had delights on [F]every foreign [C]shore But [F]when my mates all [Dm]ask me of the [Gm]place that I a[C]dore I [Gm]tell them [C]right a[F]way

Give me a home among the [Gm]gum [C]trees with lots of [Gm]plum [C]trees A [F]sheep or two a [C]kangaroo a [F]clothes line out the [Dm]back Ver[Gm]andah out the [C]front and an [Gm]old [C]rocking [F]chair

You can [F]see me in the [Dm]kitchen a [Gm]cooking up a [C]roast Or [Gm]vegemite on [C]toast just [F]you and me a [C]cup a tea And [F]later on we’ll [Dm]settle down and [Gm]go out on the [C]porch And [Gm]watch the [C]possums [F]play

There’s a [Bb]Safeway on the corner and a [F]Woolies down the street And a [C]brand new place they’ve opened up where they [F]regulate the [F7]heat But I’d [Bb]trade them all tomorrow for a [F]little bush retreat Where the [C]kookaburras [F]call kook kook kook ka ka ka

Some [F]people like their [Dm]houses built with [Gm]fences all a[C]round [Gm]Others live in [C]mansions and [F]some beneath the [C]ground But [F]me I love the [Dm]bush you know with [Gm]rabbits runnin’ [C]round And a [Gm]pumpkin [C]vine out the [F]back
