BLACK MATAI Peter Cape C G C G What are you singing, black matai, black matai? C Am Dm G G7 The snow's on the tops and the fire's burning down. C Dm F Am What are you singing, east wind in the matai? G Dm G7 C Your love's left the station, she's gone to the town. C G C G What are you chattering, tall mountain birches? C Am Dm G G7 The wind's in the west, and the rain's pelting down. C Dm F Am The flash floods are coming, I'm bound to keep moving, G Dm G7 C But she's gone from the station, she's gone to the town. C G C G Oh, the smell of these deerskins, the weight of my rifle, C Am Dm G G7 This eighty-pound pack that keeps dragging me down: C Dm F Am I'll get out of the mountains, head back to the sheep-yards, G Dm G7 C But she's gone from the station, she's gone to the town. C G C G What are you whispering, wind in the snowgrass, C Am Dm G G7 Combing the tussocks, and smoothing them down? C Dm F Am My love's hair was golden as snowgrass in summer, G Dm G7 C But she's gone from the station, she's gone to the town. INSTRUMENTAL REPEAT 1

PACKING MY THINGS D A D D A7 D When I first came and took up my claim, D7 G D Well, Bill Muggins was my name, D7 G For though I'm a young man and able, Em D A7 Here I'm stuck, a-rocking the cradle, D E A And that is a Bill Muggins game, CHORUS:
A7 D G D G But I'm a-wake up! - I will break up! D G I'm nevermore going to roam. A7 D G I've panned in my dugout with never a nugget, A7 D Bm Em A I'm packing my things to go home.
D A7 D I've hunted Otago for gold D7 G D In the wind and the rain and the cold, D7 G I’ve holed up all winter under the snow Em D A7 All along the winding Molyneaux, D E A And that is where you need to have holed CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL D A7 D In those shanties where you spin D7 G D Away all of your hard-earned tin, D7 G Nancy's smiles are so beguiling, Em D A7 That's why Nancy's always smiling. D E A Landlord says he's not taking you in. CHORUS Repeat last line

BLUE SMOKE
G C Blue smoke goes drifting by into the deep blue sky D7 G D7 And when I think of home I sadly sigh G C Oh I can see you there with loving tears in your eyes D7 G As we fondly said our last goodbyes. C G And as I sailed away with a longing to stay A A7 D D7 I promised I'd be true and to love only you G C Blue smoke goes drifting by into the deep blue sky D D7 G My memories of home will never die.
