Jessie Got Trapped In A Coal Mine chords by Goodnight

[Verse]

Am                      C     F         Em                      C
Jesse got trapped in a coal mine, digging in the dark black pearl
                        C    Am      Em         C
Jesse got trapped in a coal mine, never did marry his girl
F                        C
There ain't no air, and there ain't no light
G                       C               G
and there ain't no way to make it out alive
        C                            G
His wedding was planned for the 5th of July
     C                       Am            Em                 C
But Jesse got trapped in a coal mine and never did marry his girl

C Am C F Am C

C                                  Am                     C
Your hands gets black and your eyes gets burned, your lungs get tired and poor
    C                   Am                 C
It draws you in like an opium den, and beckons you back for more

There ain't no air and there ain't no light
                                          G
and there ain't no way to make it out alive
        C
His wedding was planned for the 5th of July
                                Am        C          G    C
But Jesse got trapped in a coal mine and never did marry his girl


[Chorus]

G               C
Down, down under West Virginia
G                   C
Down, down in the pitch black earth
F               C                       G
Down, down on her knees she cried
                                  F
My love is somewhere in that mountain


[Interlude]

[Verse]

C                       Am              Em            Am        C
Jesse got trapped in a coal mine, digging in the dark black pearl
C                            Am     Em  Am              C
Jesse got trapped in a coal mine, never did marry his girl

C                                                                               G
She held out hope for a couple of months that he was still living somewhere
F                               C
that he'd put up the strongest kind of fight
F                                    C
and he'd dig himself out with the dynamite,
F                                  C
And he'd finally be free on the 5th of July
C                               Am              Em  Am      C
But Jesse got trapped in the coal mine and never did marry his girl


[Chorus]

G               C
Down, down under West Virginia
G                   C
Down, down in the pitch black earth
F               C                       G
Down, down on her knees she cried
G               C
Down, down deep below the surface
G                   C
Down, down by the mason-dixon line
F               C                       G
Down, down on her knees she cried
                                  C
My love is somewhere in that mountain
