Far Away in Australia

G				C		G	 
“Sweetheart I’m bidding you fond farewell, 
			D 
I will be yours some day. 
Em		D		C		G 
I’m bound for a new land, my fortune to try 
		D		G 
And I’m ready to sail away”. 
G		D 
“Far away in Australia, 
Em		D	C 
Soon will fate be kind 
Em		D	C		G 
And I will be ready to welcome at last 
		D	G 
The girl I left behind”.
“Oh, you can’t leave me”, this poor maiden said, 
“I will not let you go”. 
“But I most leave you”, he gently replied, 
“if for only a while, you know”. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
“Now whether in success or in failure, 
I will always be true, 
And proudly each day, in that land far away, 
I’ll be building a home to you”. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Daily she waits at the old cottage gate, 
Watching the whole day through, 
Then one day a message from over the sea, 
And I’m hoping these words are true. 
 
(Chorus, with variation:) 
“Far away in Australia, 
Now has come the time 
When I am ready to welcome at last 
The girl I left behind”.
