Coal River chords by Bobby Bare

Chords with lyrics

Coal River
FF     A minorAm     Eb MajorEb
Many’s the times I’ve walked its banks
   C7C7        FF
With tearful pride and humble thanks
         A minorAm    Eb MajorEb
It’s baptized my soul and made me whole
C7C7         FF
Freed my hands from dirty coal

Many small houses sit on its backs
Catalogues odf dreams and praire sof thanks
Washed my body and cleaneed my mind
It’s been cruel and it’s been kind

G minorGm  C7C7   FF
Coal River, Coal River
G minorGm  C7C7       FF
Coal River I’ve come home

I see my daddy all tired and worn
A augmentedA gentleman, yet full of scorn
We sit on the front porch and watch it (?)
Dream of knowledge and talk of pain

But that old city got to big for me
Just like the river our love runs free
So here I am and here I’ll stay
I’ll just live my life from day to day on
Coal River, Coal River
