The Hardest Mile

Intro: F C F C F C G (2x)

    C                         F 
I'm heading for a life in the land of the free 
        C                       G 
Sending every penny home to the family 
C                         F 
Off to find fortunes that can't be bought 
    G 
Now Paddy's struck down from a single shot 

G 
Paddy's struck down from a single shot! 

F C F C F C G 

They lured the men away they promised wealth and riches 
A thousand miles from home lying steel and digging ditches 
The work would be a challenge nary a soul could stand the trial 
These wayfaring boys built the railways toughest mile 

Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile! 


C                      F 
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile 
C                            G 
Murdered for their troubles, left to die 
C                        F 
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry 
      G 
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many 

F C F C F C G 

Eight weeks went by and the path was clear 
Fifty-seven men had all disappeared 
Not a mention of their name no stone was ever turned 
It would be so many years before the truth was ever learned 


C                      F 
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile 
C                            G 
Murdered for their troubles, left to die 
C                        F 
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry 
      G 
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many 

F C F C F C G 
F F C G (2x) 

    F                          C      G 
Now ghosts dance a jig on an unmarked grave 
  F                         C               G 
A slug full of lead was the price they were paid 
F                  C             G 
Vigilante justice, prejudice and pride 
G 
No one in this valley will be seen again alive 


C                      F 
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile 
C                            G 
Murdered for their troubles, left to die 
C                        F 
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry 
      G 
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many (2x)
