Verse 1
G 
D 
A 
D 
Now city folk
A 
think life's a joke
D 
with all their flash hotels
G 
D 
But I know a pub out in the scrub
A 
that beats them all to hell
D 
The wall's a tin,
A 
you walk right in
D 
G 
onto an earthen floor
D 
And I guarantee you'll see
some things
A 
you've never seen before
D 
G 
D 
Cos the bar is made from stringy bark,
A 
D 
the walls are lined with tin
G 
D 
The stools are made from old plough seats
E 
A 
and you can fit right in
D 
A 
A cockatoo sits on his perch,
D 
calls everybody mug
G 
Oh, there's always something happening
D 
A 
D 
G 
D 
A 
D 
at the old boy's pub
A 
It's quite an institution
D 
and a landmark in the town
G 
And there's photos all around
D 
the walls
A 
of all the local clowns
D 
A 
The ladies come in Tuesday nights
D 
G 
for the ladies' social clubs
D 
Have tea and scrums and whiskey
A 
D 
at the old bush pub
G 
D 
Cos the bar is made from stringy bark,
A 
D 
the walls are lined with tin
G 
D 
The stools are made from old plough seats
E 
A 
and you can fit right in
D 
A 
A cockatoo sits on his perch,
D 
calls every potty mug
G 
Oh, there's always something happening
D 
A 
D 
G 
D 
A 
D 
at the old bush pub
A 
A real big night is Friday night,
D 
they put on quite a show
G 
D 
They raffle chooks and keep the books,
A 
oh, they're always in the know
D 
A 
And the barman plays a fiddle,
D 
sings a bit and strums guitar
G 
D 
And if you like his mu sic,
A 
D 
put your money in the jar
A 
And if by chance I disappear,
D 
not to be seen again
G 
D 
Don't send her searching parties,
A 
don't waste your time on them
D 
A 
For I  might just pack up and go
D 
G 
and head out in the scrub
D 
And you'll more than likely find me
A 
D 
at the old bush pub
G 
D 
Cos the bar is made from stringy bark,
A 
D 
the walls are lined with tin
G 
For the stools are made
D 
from old plough seats
E 
A 
and you can fit right in
D 
A 
A cockatoo sits on his perch,
D 
calls everybody mug
G 
Oh, there's always
D 
something happening
A 
D 
at the old bush pub
G 
Hey, there's always
D 
something happening
A 
G 
at the old bush pub
D 
A
