Chords with lyrics
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Come all you young fellers, so young and so fine
G+G C majorC G+G
And seek not your fortunes way down in the mine
G+G G+G D MajorD
It will form like a habit and seep in your soul
G+G C majorC G+G
'Til the stream of your blood flows as black as the coal
D MajorD C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
D MajorD C majorC G+G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G+G C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G+G C majorC D MajorD
There is many a man I have seen in my day
G+G C majorC G+G
Who lived just to labor his whole life away
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Like the fiend with his dope and the drunkard his wine
G+G C majorC G+G
A augmentedA man will have lust for the lure of the mine
D MajorD C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
D MajorD C majorC G+G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G+G C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G+G C majorC D MajorD
I hope when I'm dead and the ages shall roll
G+G C majorC G+G
That my body will blacken and turn into coal
G+G C majorC D MajorD
I will look from the door of my heavenly home
G+G C majorC G+G
And pity the miner a' diggin' my bones
D MajorD C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
D MajorD C majorC G+G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G+G C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G+G C majorC G+G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
