Version 1 
            [Intro]
D7

[Verse 1]
   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

[Chorus]
G         Em             Am       D7
Give me a home among the gumtrees
             Am       D7
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

[Verse 2]
G                     Em
You can see me in the kitchen
        Am     D7
Cooking up a   roast
   Am          D7
Or Vegemite on toast
     G             D7
Just you and me, a cup of tea
    G               Em
And later on, we'll settle down
    Am            D7
And go out on the porch
    Am        D7      G
And watch the possums play

[Chorus]
G         Em             Am       D7
Give me a home among the gumtrees
             Am       D7
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

[Verse 3]
          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

[Chorus]
G         Em             Am       D7
Give me a home among the gumtrees
             Am       D7
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

[Verse 4]
G                     Em
Some people like their houses
        Am     D7
With fences all around
   Am          D7
Others live in mansions
     G             D7
And some beneath the ground
    G               Em
But me I like the bush you know
    Am            D7
With rabbits running round
    Am        D7      G
And a pumpkin vine out the back

[Chorus]
G         Em             Am       D7
Give me a home among the gumtrees
             Am       D7
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

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
