Bm                 A          Bm      G A
Traveling in a fried-out combie
Bm            A                    Bm      G A
On a hippie 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)

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
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
    D                 A                Bm     G A
You better run, you better take cover.

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-a my language?"
Bm                 A                  Bm       G A
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich (And he said)

I come from a land down under

Where beer does flow and men chunder

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?

You better run, you better take cover.

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)
    D                  A                 Bm   G A
Oh! Do you come from a land down under?
D              A                 Bm   G A
Where women glow and men plunder?

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?

You better run, you better take cover.
