I [G] met [Am] a [G] strange lady, [A] she made me nervous, [Am] she took [G] me in and [A] gave me breakfast.
She said, you
[C] come [G] from a land down [Am] under,
[C] [G] women glowin' [A] in blunder,
[C] can't you hear,
[G] can't you hear the [Am] thunder, [C] you better run, [G] you better take [Am] cover.
I heard [G] a whistling, [Am]
I heard [G] a whistling,
[Am]
Vine bread [G] from a man in [Am] Brussels, six foot [G] four, [Am] full of muscle,
I [G] said, do you [Am] speak my language, brother, he just [G] smiled and gave me a [Am] Vegemite sandwich.
[C] I come [G] from a land down [Am] under,
[C] and for me [G] that's flow and [Am] enchantment,
[C] can't you [G] hear, can't you hear the [Am] thunder, [C] you better run, [G] you better [Am] take cover.

[Am] I said [G] to the man, are you [Am] trying to tempt me, [G] cause I come from the [A] land of plenty.
[C] I said, oh, do you [G] come from a land down [Am] under, oh yeah, [C] yeah, [G] women glowin' in [Am] blunder,
[G]
[C] can't you [G] hear, can't you hear the [Am] thunder, [C] you better run, [G] you better take [Am] cover.
