A Flag Of Our Own

 D                      G         D
Ned Kelly came round to see me today,
 D                        G       A
 I guess I was dreaming - oh! oo oh
 D                     G             D        G          A        D
Dumbfounded I couldn't think what to say     Oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.
 G                      D
I beckoned him in, but he shook his head
         A                       D
He said "I'm a bit grubby and a bit poorly bred
       G                     D
I'd rather we yarned out the back in the shed
       A                     D
I can leave m' boots on that way

 G      D     A     D
 D                                G            D
Well, he took a stiff whisky and laid down his gun
 D                                     G
He said "I won't keep you long, cause I've got to run
       D                     G                D            G       A        D
Got to ride to the mountains before night is done"         Oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.
         G                           D
He said "word's got around 'bout the music you play
     A                   D
You truly believe in the fair dinkum way
          G                        D
That the bush must remain for our spirit to stay
       A                       D
And we must have a flag of our own!"

 G      D       A      D
   D                             G            D
He said "I learned long ago when I was still young
                                G              A
Like the lizard that spits and sticks out his tongue
    D                         G      D                    G      A       D
Oh the way to get shot is to carry a gun                 Oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.oh.
           G                       D
"There's a new world order!", the leaders all shout
     A                          D
And everyone's frantic they're gonna miss out
     G                                  D
And the red, white and blues are still marching about
      A                        D
Oh we must have a flag of our own"

 G     D     A     D
         G                    D
'Cause this is Australia and that's where we're from
       A                        D
We're not Yankee side-kicks or second class Poms
     G                            D
And tell the Frogs what they can do with their bomb
      A                       D
Oh we must have a flag of our own!
        G                     D
'Cause this is Australia and that's where we're from
       A                        D
We're not Yankee side-kicks or second class Poms
     G                           D
And tell the Frogs what they can do with their bomb
       A                      D
Oh we must have a flag of our own!
