I (C)still call Aus(G)traila (C)home.

All (Em)the sons and (B7)daughters
(Em)spinning round the (B7)world,
Away (Em)from their (C)family and (G)friends,
But (Em)as the world gets (B7)older and (Em)colder,
It's good to (F)know where your journey (G)ends.

(C)Someday we'll (E7)all be (Am)together once (C)more,
When (F)all of the (C)ships come (D7)back to the (G)shore,
I'll (C)realise (E7)something I've (Am)always (F)known,
I (C)still call Aus(G)trail (C)home.

No (C)matter how (E7)far or (Am)how wide I (F)roam,
I (C)still call Aus(G)tralia...
I (C)still call Aus(G)tralia...
I (C)still call Aus(G)trail (F)ho(C)me.
