[Intro]
C C F C C F G7
[Verse 1]
C F C
The can*ls, and the bridges, the embankments and cuts,
F C G7
They blasted and dug with their sweat and their guts,
C F C7
They never drank water but whiskey by pints,
C F C G
And the shanty towns rang with their songs and their fights.
[Chorus]
C F C
Navigator, Navigator, rise up and be strong,
F C G7
The morning is here and there's work to be done,
C F C7
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite,
C F C G
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight,
C F C G
Yes, to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
[Verse 2]
C F C
They died in their hundreds with no sign to mark where
F C G7
Save the brass in the pocket of the entrepreneur.
C F C7
By landslide and rockblast they got buried so deep
C F C G
That in death if not life they'll have peace while they sleep.
[Chorus]
C F C
Navigator, Navigator, rise up and be strong,
F C G7
The morning is here and there's work to be done,
C F C7
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite,
C F C G
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight,
C F C G
Yes, to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.

[Verse 3]
C F C
Their mark on this land is still seen and still laid
F C G7
The way for a commerce where vast fortunes were made
C F C7
The supply of an Empire where the sun never set
C F C G
Which is now deep in darkness, but the railway's there yet.
[Chorus]
C F C
Navigator, Navigator, rise up and be strong,
F C G7
The morning is here and there's work to be done,
C F C7
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite,
C F C G
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight,
C F C G
Yes, to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
