[Verse]
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Well it was good one time everything was mighty fine
A augmentedA D MajorD
The coal temples roared day and night
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
But things they got slow for no reason that I know
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And ill winds they hove into sight
[Verse]
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
The mines all closed down everybody laid around
A augmentedA D MajorD
There wasn't very much left to do
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Except stand in that line to get your ration script on time
A augmentedA D MajorD
And woman I could see it killin' you
[Chorus]
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Now the soft new snows of December
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Lightly fall my cabin 'round
G+G
And the last train from Poor Valley
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Takin' brown haired Becky Richmond bound
[Verse]
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
It's been a comin' on and on lord soon you would be gone
A augmentedA D MajorD
Leavin' crossed your mind every day
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Then you said to me things are bad back home you see
A augmentedA D MajorD
I guess I better be on my way
[Verse]
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Well I should blame you now but I never could somehow
A augmentedA D MajorD
A augmentedA miner's wife you weren't cutout to be
A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
It wasn't what you thought just some dreams that you'd bought
A augmentedA D MajorD
When you left home and ran away with me
[Chorus]
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Now the soft new snows of December
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Lightly fall my cabin 'round
G+G
And the last train from Poor Valley
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Takin' brown haired Becky Richmond bound
[Outro]

And the last train from Poor Valley
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
