Tonart: D minor
Verse 1
Dm
B
Dm
As I rolled out by
their Moxbury bounds
Where all the maids of Australia
did play their wild pranks
by a shady green bough,
Dm
where all the birds sang so gaily
and chanting all round,
in the forests of happy Australia,
G
in the forests of happy Australia,
Dm
Well, I had not been long in
that beautiful sheen,
C
Dm
where all the fields are de lightful,
the trees evergreen,
where the pretty gay damsel
F#
Dm
to me did appear.
To the banks of the river
she quickly drew near
She's a native of happy Australia
G
She's a native of happy Australia
are handsome and gay
F#
Dm
G
Well, she took off her clothes,
F#
G
Dm
and before me she stood
Just as naked as Venus
would come from the flood
She looked me in my face
and smiling said she
Oh, this is the robe that day nature
gave me
On the day I was born in Australia
G
Dm
On the day I was born in Australia,
Where the maidens are handsome
G
Dm
G
and gay.
Dm
Well she jumped in the water
Dm
And her beautiful limbs
she exceedingly spread,
And her hair hanging ringlets,
C
Dm
and the colour it was black.
She cried, Sir,
you can see how I swim on my back,
In the streams of my native Australia.
In the streams of my native
G
Dm
Australia.
G
Where the maidens are handsome and gay
Dm
Oh, but being tired of swimming,
she came to the brink
E
Dm
Oh, assist me, kind sir,
for I'm sure I shall sink
F#
Dm
So, like lightning, I flew,
B
E
took her fast by the hand
B
But my faulty did slip,
Dm
we both fell to the sand
And I entered the bush of Australia
G
I entered the bush of Australia
Dm
F#
And we sported together
Dm
in the highest of glee
E
B
E
Dm
F#
In the finest Australia you ever did see
B
Till my head on her beautiful
F#
Dm
breast did incline
E
Dm
An d the sun in the west,
all his glories resigned
And I left that fair maid of Australia
E
Dm
G
I left that fair maid of Australia
Dm
F#
B
Just as the moon did shine
