Verse 1
F
C
we're building a line
Through the ranges and gorges
F
C
to the Great Nickel Mine
The long days are dusty and
It's Thief Brothers Camp
F
C
on the banks of the Stier
We're men from all nations
We curse at the things
F
C
that go wrong through the day
We vow that we'll snatch it
C
G
C
from Free River's Hotel
There's Wesley the barman
F
C
and young Irish Joe
Serving the booze and
F
C
collecting the dough
What a stir they would cause
And on the night after payday
F
C
there's fun and romance
It's a time for the families
F
C
to sing and to dance
You can let down your hair
And if you listen to the bosses
F
C
when the night's getting late
The progress they're making
F
C
is the best in the state
They'd be finished this line
C
G
C
in Three Rivers Hotel
And if you think you can drink,
F
C
we've got money to back
On stayers like Cass and
F
C
old Grady Jack
And they tell me Doc Watson
When this job is finished,
F
C
still chasing big dough
But wherever I wander,
C
A
Rivers Hotel
G
D
to the great nickel mine.
A
D
The long days are dusty and
I said the long days are dusty
D

Three Rivers Hotel.
