Verse 1
(D major) (G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major) Once I had a silly notion
to (G major) out across the ocean
The (D major) future for me didn't look to (A major) bright
So I (D major) signed up with a tanker,
Got on (G major) board and raised the anchor
Stood and (D major) watched the Golden
(A major) Gate fade out of (D major) sight
Nineteen days and nights we
travelled
Through the (G major) stormy seas we battled
'Till we (D major) landed in Australia far (A major) away
Far from (D major) friends and San Francisco
And the (G major) Miss I thought I'll miss so
'Till I (D major) stepped ashore in (A major) Mel
bourne that first (D major) day
Verse 2
But I met (G major) Melba (D major) from (G major) Melbourne
(D major) she made my heart yearn
(A major) She made my tears (D major) flow like wine
(G major) She let me kiss her then
(D major) made me miss her
'Cause Mel (A major) ba could never be
(D major) mine

Interlude 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
(G major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
Verse 3
So in (D major) love but couldn't get her
Cared so (G major) much, couldn't forget het
I (D major) fell in love just a little bit
more and (A major) more
There I (D major) was just like I started
All (G major) alone and broken hearted
I re (D major) call the day I (A major) left Australia's (D major) shore
I was standing there and tryin'
So (G major) hard to keep from crying
The (D major) more I tried, the more my
tears would (A major) show
Then a (D major) cold breeze seem to whisper
"it's (G major) the end you better kiss her"
So I (D major) kissed her and I (A major) turned away to (D major) go
Then I left (G major) Melba from
Verse 4
Melbourne
(D major) She made my heart yearn
(A major) She made my tears flow like (D major) wine
(G major) She wouldn't leave there
(D major) I couldn't stay there
So (A major) Melba could never be (D major) mine
