Three Rivers Hotel
Composição de (Stan Coster)
E                                  A          E 
From Townsville to Greenvale we're building a line 
                                      A            E 
Through the ranges and gorges to the great nickel mine 
                             A 
The long days are dusty and hotter than hell 
            B                               E 
And that's why we all worship Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                                A            E 
It's Theiss Brothers camp on the banks of the Star 
                                A             E 
Where men from all nations and walks of life are 
                                 A 
And it's funny to listen to the stories they tell 
       B                                   E 
Every night round the bar in Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                              A                 E 
We curse at the things that go wrong through the day 
                             A       E 
And vow that we'll snatch it go far away 
                                A 
But when day is done and we're soon feeling well 
      B                                   E 
And laughter rings out from Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                             A           E 
There's Wesley the barman and young irish Joe 
                         A            E 
Serving the booze and collecting the dough 
                                      A        
What a stir they would cause if they ever should tell 
          B                                      E 
All the secrets they've learned in Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                                  A         E 
On the night after pay day there's fun and romance 
                                  A           E 
It's a night for the families to sing and to dance 
                                     A 
You can let down your hair and come out of your shell 
    B                                  E 
And do your own thing in Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                                        A               E 
And if you listen to the bosses when the night's getting late 
                                    A           E 
On the progress they're making the best in the state 
                                        A 
They'd be finished this line and this maintenance as well 
          B                                       E 
If they worked like they bragged in Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
 E                                        A        E 
And if you think you can drink we've got money to back 
                          A          E 
On stayers like Cass and old grader Jack 
                                    A 
And they tell me old Coster gives everyone hell 
          B                                 E 
When he gets on the booze in Three Rivers Hotel (Yeah he's a whopper) 
 
 
 E                               A          E 
When this job is finished we'll pack up and go 
                                A          E 
To another construction still chasing big dough 
                            A       
But where ever I wander my memory will dwell 
           B                         E 
On those happy days in Three Rivers Hotel 
 
 
Repeat 1st verse twice- After 1st time yell (yeah come on Coster)
