Verse 1:

Am
Well the docks lie crippled

In the northern towns

The boys have all gone away




Trying to find work down south

Bridge:
D                                      C
And mister I walk in the valley of the shadow
          D                                 C
Woah-oh-oh-Won't someone have mercy on my soul
      Bm    G     C   Bm
On my soul, soul, soul

Chorus:
         Em                    D
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
     Am                             Em
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
         Em                           D
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
              Am                       Em                    Am
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Verse 2:
Am
Now I've seen the future
Am
And I've seen the past
Am
And I've seen the lights go down
Am
On this world fading fast

D                                      C
And mister I walk in the valley of the shadow
D                              C
Won't someone have mercy on my soul
      Bm    G     C   Bm
On my soul, soul, soul

         Em                    D
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
     Am                             Em
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
         Em                         D
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
              Am                       Em                    Am
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Won't someone have mercy on my soul
      Bm    G     C    Bm
On my soul, soul, soul

          Em                    D
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
     Am                             D
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
          Em                         D
Hallowed groud where the ships run aground
               Am                      Em
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Back home in my house
Am
Oh I've got someone
Am
I've got to take care of somehow
