verse 1

I've b[F]een around the world
A couple of [Gm]times or maybe [C]more
I've [Gm]seen the sights, I've [C]had delights
On e[F]very foreign shore
But w[F]hen my mates all ask me
The p[Gm]lace that I a[C]dore
I [Gm]tell them [C]right awa[F]y "what do we tell em?"


Chorus

Give me a home among the[Gm] gumtrees[C]
With lots of [Gm]plum trees[C]
A s[F]heep or two, a k-kangaroo
A [F]clothesline out the back
V[Gm]erandah out the f[C]ront
And an [Gm]old r[C]ocking c[F]hair

verse 2 (same as verse 1)

You can see me in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Or Vegemite on toast
Just you and me, a cup of tea
And later on, we'll settle down
And go out on the porch
And watch the possums play

chorus

Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair


verse 3

There's a [A#]Safeways up the corner
And a [F]Woolies down the street
And a [C]brand new place they've opened up
Where they [F]regulate the heat
But I'd [A#]trade them all tomorrow
For a [F]little bush retreat
Where the [C]kookab[Gm]urras [C]call kookakakakakakkaakakkakaaa

chorus

Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair

verse 4 ( up a step )

Some [G]people like their houses
With [Am]fences all [D]around )
[Am]Others live in ma[D]nsions
And [G]some beneath the ground
But [G]me I like the bush you know
With [Am]rabbits running roun[D]d
And a [Am]pumpkin v[D]ine out the [G]back

chorus (no guitar played in this chorus) (just singing)

Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair

Give me a home among the [Am]gumtrees[D]
With lots of p[Am]lum trees[D]
A [G]sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A [G]clothesline out the back
V[Am]erandah out the [D]front
And an [Am]old r[D]ocking c[G]hair
