 D                                                       G                                     D 
The canals, and the bridges, the embankments and cuts,
 D                                       G                                 D                     A7 
They blasted and dug with their sweat and their guts,
 D                                       G                                     D7 
They never drank water but whiskey by pints,
 D                                       G                                       D                         A 
And the shanty towns rang with their songs and their fights.
(CHORUS)

 D                               G                           D                         A7 
The morning is here and there's work to be done,
 D                                                         G                                           D7 
So take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite,
 D                                   G                             D                   A 
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight,
 D                                     G                             D                   A 
Yes, to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
They died in their hundreds, with no sign to mark where,

               D/A/A7/D 
Their mark on this land is still seen and still laid,
The way for a commerce where vast fortunes were made,

Save the brass in the pocket of the entrepreneur
       G                                                             C                 G 
By landslip and rockblast they got buried so deep
                 G                                                        D                               G 
That in death if not life they'll have peace while they sleep

The supply of an Empire where the sun never set
