TITLE: Down Under
Lyrics and Chords


Traveling in a fried-out Kombi
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast, and she said

/ Bm A Bm GA / / / /

   Do you come from a land down under
   Where women glow and men plunder
   Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder
   You better run, you better take cover

   / D A Bm GA / / / /

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language"
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
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty," and he said

   Oh, do you come from a land down under, oh yeah yeah
   Where women glow and men plunder
   Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder
   You better run, you better take cover

   Livin' in a land down under
   Where women glow and men plunder
   Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder
   You better run, you better take cover
   {Repeat to fade}
