Home Among The Gum Trees Tab par 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

  Am             D7

       Am  D7      G  
And an old rocking chair 

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 

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

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
