_ _ _ _ _ Down at the wool shed, the news is spreading fast.
Paddy Ryan's [F#] working on, on his [A#m] farm.
He's way too young, he [Fm] won't keep [F#] up.
He hasn't got [G#] the strength, [C#] you need him bloody fast,
boy [F#] if he's [G#] coming [C#] in this shed.
Oh, gilly how's our smoke [F#] go?
A shearer [C#] takes a blow, before your shears can click.
[F#] Boys, it's [G#] over with the show.
[A#m] The cutters stop, the fleece is [F#] off, a whistle [D#] as you go.
[C#] And don't forget the rouse, [F#] about [G#] another [C#] perfect throw. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The smell is oily, mixed with dampened wool.
The rouse is right behind [F#] him, he [C#m] won't be made a fool.
[C#] He's planned ahead and it won't take [F#] long, and before we're [G#] nearly through.
[C#] A shearer howls out, rattle [F#] and grabs [C#] another ewe.
Oh, gilly how's our smoke [F#] go?
A [G#] shearer [C#] takes a blow, before your shears can click.
[F#] Boys, it's [G#] over with the show.
[A#m] The cutters [Fm] stop, the fleece is [F#] off, a whistle [G#] as you go.
[C#] And don't forget the rouse, [F#] about another [C#] perfect throw. _ _ _
_ [F#] _ [Fm] _ [C#] _ They're talking in the wool shed, [F#] Paddy's got [C#] a girl.
How you gonna keep [F#] her?
Your [G#] muscles need some work.
[A#m] But Paddy laughs along with [F#] them, and Skilly has [G#] no doubt.
[C#] One day he's gonna shear like [F#] they're Mr.
[G#] The [C#] Rouse About.
Oh, gilly how's our smoke [F#] go?
A shearer [C#] takes a blow, before your shears can click.
[F#] Boys, it's [G#] over with the show.
[A#m] The cutters stop, the [Fm] fleece is [F#] off, a whistle [G#] as you go.
[C#] And don't forget the rouse, about [F#] [C#] another perfect throw. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's nearly time to knock off, [F#] cut [G#] out, that'll do.
Gilly's on [C#] the last side, he got the gun for two.
[A#m] Roll out your swag [Fm] and set up camp.
[F#] We'll catch a beer and [G#] _
tell.
_ _ _ [C#] Scrub the rouse about, [F#] he said, [C#] I think you're coming round.
Oh, gilly how's our smoke go?
A shearer takes a blow, before your shears can click.
[F#] Boys, [G#] it's over with the [A#m] show.
The cutters stop, the fleece [F#] is off, a whistle [G#] as you go.
[C#] And don't forget the rouse, [F#] about [G#] another perfect [C#] throw.
No, don't forget the rouse, [F#] about another perfect [C#] throw.
No, don't forget the rouse, [F#] about [G#] another [C#] perfect throw. _ _
