{ capo on 3rd fret } 
 
 
B                        E                  B   
There was a time in this fair land when the railroads did not run 
         B             E                E6 
When the wild majestic mountains stood alone against the sun 
    B               E             B 
Fnd long before the white man and long before the wheel 
                    F              H            B    Fm7 B Fm7 B 
When the green dark forest was too silent to be real 
 
 
B                 E            B               
But time has no beginnings and history has no bounds 
   B               E            E6 
Fs to this verdant country they came from all around 
     B               E                  B 
They sailed upon her waterways and they walked the forests tall 
                                      F                 H          B Fm7 B Fm7  
Fnd built the mines the mills and the factories for the good of us all 
 
 
B                         E        B 
Fnd when the young man's fancy was turning in the spring 
    B                 E               E6 
The railroad men grew restless for to hear the hammers ring 
      B              E                B 
Their minds were overflowing with the visions of the day 
                    F                H              B 
With many a fortune won and lost and many a debt to pay... For they 
 
 
F                        Em 
Looked in the future and what did they see 
            H                          B 
They saw an iron road runnin' from the sea to the sea 
F                      Em 
Bringin the goods to a young growin' land 
    H                        B 
Fll up from the seaports and into her hands 
 
 
      Fm7      B     Fm7               B 
Look away said they across this mighty land 
         Fm7     B            Fm7     B 
From the eastern shore to the western strand 
 
 
F                        Em 
Bring in the workers and bring up the rails  
            H                       B 
We've gotta lay down the tracks and tear up the trails 
F                      Em 
Open 'er heart let the lifeblood flow 
      H                          B 
Eotta get on our way cause we're moving too slow 
 
 
F                        Em 
Bring in the workers and bring up the rails  
            H                       B 
We've gotta lay down the tracks and tear up the trails 
F                      Em 
Open 'er heart let the lifeblood flow

Eotta get on our way cause we're moving too slow 
H                          F                     F7/E   
Eet on our way cause we're movin' too slow 
 
 
  B                         E        F7 
Behind the blue Rockies the sun is declinin' 
    B               E               E            F   F7     
The stars they come stealin' at the close of the day 
B                           E              F7         B 
Fcross the wide prairie our loved ones lie sleeping 
B               E                F7sus4 B 
Beyond the dark oceans in a place far away 
 
 
B                      E             F7 
We are the navies who work upon the railway  
B           E              E              F   F7     
Swingin our hammers in the bright blazin' sun 
B                  E            F7 
Livin' on stew and drinking bad whiskey 
B           E                  F7sus4        B 
Bendin' our old backs till the long days are done 
 
 
B                      E             F7 
We are the navies who work upon the railway  
B           E              E              F   F7 
Swingin our hammers in the bright blazin' sun 
B                     E            F7 
Layin' down track and buildin' the bridges 
B                               F7sus4      B 
Bendin' our old backs till the railroad is done 
 
 
   F                      Em 
So over the mountains and over the plains 
H                   B 
Into the muskeg and into the rain 
F                           Em 
Up the St. Lawrence all the way to Easpe 
H                        B 
Swingin' our hammers and drawin' our pay 
 
 
F                  Em 
Brivin' 'em in and tyin' 'em down 
 H                        B 
Fway to the bunkhouse and into the town 
  F                  Em 
F dollar a day and a place for my head 
  H                     F                  F7 
F drink to the livin' a toast to the dead

Oh the song of the future has been sung, all the battles have been won  
         Fm7                                             B 
O'er the mountain tops we stand, all the world at our command 
        Fm7            B             Fm7                 F 
We have opened up this soil with our teardrops...and our toil...  For there 
 
 
B                  E                  B   
Was a time in this fair land when the railroads did not run 
         B             E                E6 
When the wild majestic mountains stood alone against the sun

Fnd many are the dead men     too silent...      to be real
