Song: Down Under
By:   Men at Work

[intro:] 2 X  [ Bm  A  Bm   G A ]

[verse:1]
Bm               A          Bm       G A
Travelling in a fried out kombie
Bm           A                 Bm    G A
On a hippy trail head full of zombie
Bm           A                        Bm   G A
 I met a strange lady, she made me nervous.
Bm           A                Bm     G A
She took me in and gave me breakfast,     and she said

[chorus:1]
D                    A        Bm    G A
Do you come from a land down under
D                 A        Bm   G A
Where women glow and men plunder?
D                 A              Bm     G A
Cant you hear can you hear the thunder
D                A               Bm     G A
You better run, you better take cover

[solo: flute] 2 X  [ Bm  A  Bm   G A ]

[verse: 2] 
Bm             A             Bm       G A
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
Bm                A                Bm       G A
he was six foot four and full of muscles
Bm       A                Bm    G A
I said do you speak my language?
Bm         A                            Bm      G A
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich     And he said  

[chorus:2]
D               A        Bm    G A
I come from a land down under
D                 A            Bm     G A
Where beer does flow and men chunder
D          A                        Bm       G A
Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder?
D           A                   Bm       G A
You better run you better take cover


[solo: flute] 4 X  [ Bm  A  Bm   G A ]
              2 X  [ D   A  Bm   G A ]


[verse: 3] 
Bm          A      Bm      G A
Lying in a den in Bombay
Bm            A                  Bm      G A
With a slack jaw and not much to say
Bm                  A                  Bm      G A
I said to the man "Are you trying to tempt me?
Bm          A                     Bm    G A
Because I come from the land of plenty"     and he said "oh"

[chorus:1]

{coda:]
D             A        Bm    G A
Living in a land down under
D                 A        Bm   G A
Where women glow and men plunder?
D                 A              Bm     G A
Cant you hear can you hear the thunder
D                A               Bm     G A
You better run, you better take cover
