Biografia:
Scotland's greatest living Australian. Or the other way around, depending on how you look at it.
Born in Peebles, Scotland, and emigrating to Australia in 1969, he currently resides near Adelaide, South Australia. Written in 1972, And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda is perhaps his best-known song, being a haunting evocation of the ANZAC experience fighting in the Battle of Gallipoli. It has also been interpreted as a reaction to the Vietnam War.

G C G
On Saturday mornings I'd ride to the movies,
C G C D
Booted and spurred on my horse made of tin
G C G
Tie-up my cyi-use outside on the pavement

'Front Row Cowboy'
#Chorded by Shawn and Andrew Prest
C G D G
Lay down my sixpence and mosey on in.
D C G
I'd sit in the front row with the other young cowboys
D C G
Waitin' for Roy to appear on the screen
D C G
Waitin' for Roy and his golden horse Trigger,
C G D G
To carry me off into my favorite dream.
Chorus:
G C G
Roy Rogers, Roy Rogers, Oh you were my hero,
C G C D
A man made of steel on a horse made of gold
G C G
Together we rode through the days of my childhood
C G D G
Memories like heroes, they never grow old.
G C G
Together we rode over mountains and valleys
C G C D
Camped out a night 'neath the wide prairie sky,
G C G
We'd sing cowboy songs as we sat by the campfire
C G D G
While out in the darkness a wild coyote cried
D C G
Yi-pi-tie-yi-yo baked beans and coffee,
D C G
Tall tales and true as we sat by the fire
D C G
Then up in the morning and away we'd go riding.
C G D G
Two gay caballeros, two heroes for hire.
G C G
And now I'm a man, and I've hung up my six-gun
C G C D
No more do I ride on a horse made of tin.
G C G
Now I ride subways, and freeways and railways,
C G D G
Instead of a six-gun I now wield a pen.
D C G
But part of my heart will always be ridin'
D C G
Along the bright canyons and the wild forest ways
D C G
Along with Roy Rogers my faithful companion,
C G D G
Into the sunset of my childhood days.

He was my friend, yes, he was my friend.
D G
He never let me down.

He was honest and faithful right up to the end
D C G
I loved Roy Rogers 'cause he was my friend.
