Capo:no capo
LEGEND: * means "stop"
[Intro]
A X4
[Verse 1]
A
Goodbye Bunyip Bluegum, goodbye Blinky Bill,
A
and beautiful little Nutsie, I can't believe it;
D
our koalas are all dying, can it really be,
E *
a national disaster, a world catastrophe.
[Verse 2]
A
Shiny little black nose and fluffy little ears,
A
furry little bundle soaking up the tears;
D
Snugglepot and Cuddlepie are crying in the rain
E *
and wombat's gone into his hole and won't come out.
[Chorus]
D E A
Oh pass the hat around between your friends,
D E A A
there's no time to contemplate;
D E F#m
maybe if we show some love,
D E A
maybe it's not too late.
[Verse 3]
A
'Cause Blinky Bill is dying, cross him off the list,
A
knock on doors, ring the bell, save the eucalypts;
D
I don't think I could stand the shame, knowing that I could,
E *
have saved the world from losing something beautiful and good.
[Chorus]
D E A
Oh pass the hat around between your friends,
D E A A
there's no time to contemplate;
D E F#m
maybe if we show some love,
D E A
maybe it's not too late.
[Interlude]
A A
[Verse 4]
A
One doctor on the job is hardly enough,
A
one little hospital, wake up Australia;
D
it's our corner of the world, time to pull our weight,
E *
what would we tell our children about our little mate?
[Verse 1] (Reprise)
A
Goodbye Bunyip Bluegum, goodbye Blinky Bill,
A
and beautiful little Nutsie, I can't believe it;
D
our koalas are all dying, can it really be,
E *
a national disaster, a world catastrophe.
[Chorus]
D E A
Oh pass the hat around between your friends,
D E A A
there's no time to contemplate;
D E F#m
maybe if we show some love,
D E A
maybe it's not too late.
[End-Chorus]
D E A
Oh pass the hat around between your friends,
D E A A
there's no time to contemplate;
D E F#m
maybe if we show some love,
D E A
maybe it's not too late.
[Outro] (Whistling)
