D G
[Verse 1]
G Am
Now the stock have started dying, for the Lord has sent a drought
D G
We're sick of prayers and providence, we're going to do without
Am
With the derricks up above us and the solid earth below
D G
We're waiting at the lever for the word to let her go
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
D G
[Verse 2]
G Am
Now, our engine's built in Glasgow by a very canny Scot
D G
And he marked her twenty horse-power, but he don’t know what is what
Am
When Canadian Bill is firing with them sun-dried gidgee logs
D G
She can equal thirty horses and a score or so of dogs
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
D G
[Verse 3]
G Am
But the shaft has started caving and the sinking's very slow
D G
And the yellow rods are bending in the water down below
Am
And the tubes are always jamming, and they can't be made to shift
D G
‘Till we nearly burst the engine with a forty horse-power lift
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
D G
[Verse 4]
G Am
But there's no artesian water, though we've passed three thousand feet
D G
The contract price is growing, and the boss is nearly beat
Am
But it must be down beneath us, so it's down we've got to go
D G
Though she's bumping on the solid rock four thousand feet below
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
D G
[Verse 5]
G Am
But it's hark, the whistle's blowing with a wild triumphant blast
D G
The boys are madly cheering for we've struck the flow at last
Am
It is rushing up the tubing from four thousand feet below
D G
Till it spouts above the casing in a million gallon flow
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
D G
[Verse 6]
G Am
So it's clear away the timber and it's let the water run
D G
How it glimmers in the shadows, how it flashes in the sun
Am
By the silent belts of timber, by the miles of baking plain
D G
It is bringing hope and comfort to the thirsty land again
[Chorus]
G D
Sinking down, down, down
G
Sinking down, down, down
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down, down, down
D G
Deeper down (deeper down), deeper down (deeper down)
D G
Yes we'll find artesian water deeper down
