BOUND FOR SOUTH AUSTRALIA - Guitar Ensemble (Easy)

Adapted for a guitar trio with an optional bass component by Lincoln Brady, this is an uncomplicated rendition of the traditional sea shanty "Bound for South Australia". Also referred to as "South Australia" or "Rolling King", the song was first documented in 1888. Its origins lie with the workers of various professions who regularly traveled on clipper ships between England and Australia during the 19th century. The shanty has gained considerable popularity in recent times and is frequently performed by folk musicians across various platforms including television, radio, and music festivals.
