Verse 1:
D MajorD                Dsus4Dsus4
She was always a very pretty lady
D MajorD              Dsus4Dsus4
He had always caught her eye
D MajorD
They were married in a mining valley
  B minorBm                G+G       D MajorD
And swore they'd be together 'til the day that they died

D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD

Verse 2:
D MajorD
Twenty years later with the coal all gone
Dsus4Dsus4  D MajorD            Dsus4Dsus4
And the golden lamp in his hand
  D MajorD
He stands at the bar with a pint and his friends
   B minorBm             G+G       D MajorD
They all agree together that they don't understand

Pre-Chorus
B minorBm                D MajorD      G+G
Meanwhile little David takes his books off to school
  D MajorD          C majorC
And learns of times gone past
B minorBm                D MajorD      G+G
And when it comes to questions he puts up his hand
    D MajorD                C majorC
There's something that he just wants to ask


D MajorD         Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir can you give me and answer
D MajorD           Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir you know it doesn't seem fair
D MajorD        Dsus4Dsus4
Last night as I walked through the door
 B minorBm               G+G     D MajorD
I thought I saw my father crying sat in his chair

D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD

Verse 3:
D MajorD                    Dsus4Dsus4
She stood there with her arms around him and she said
D MajorD              Dsus4Dsus4
She promised him a better day
D MajorD
But after twenty years of working underground
   B minorBm           G+G     D MajorD
It's not just your job that they take away

Pre-Chorus
B minorBm             D MajorD      G+G
Sometimes he'd walk to the edge of his world
  D MajorD           C majorC
And stare at the valley below
B minorBm               D MajorD    G+G
He thought about leaving maybe running away
  D MajorD             C majorC
But knew there was nowhere to go

D MajorD         Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir can you give me and answer
D MajorD           Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir you know I just can't see
D MajorD          Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir when you make these decisions
B minorBm              G+G     D MajorD
Do you have a vision of what happens to me
D MajorD         Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir can you give me and answer
D MajorD           Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir you know I just can't say
D MajorD          Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir when you make these decisions
B minorBm              G+G     D MajorD
Do you have a vision of what happens to me

D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD B minorBm G+G D MajorD

Verse 4:
D MajorD                Dsus4Dsus4
Life goes on in a mining valley
    D MajorD                 Dsus4Dsus4
But the young men leave for a better wage
D MajorD
And every day he coughs and he splutters
  B minorBm           G+G     D MajorD
He knows that love is the reason he stays
  B minorBm           G+G     D MajorD
He knows that love is the reason he stays

Pre-Chorus
B minorBm                D MajorD      G+G
Meanwhile little David takes his books off to school
  D MajorD          C majorC
And learns of times gone past
B minorBm                D MajorD      G+G
And when it comes to questions he puts up his hand
    D MajorD                C majorC
There's something that he just wants to ask


D MajorD         Dsus4Dsus4
Please sir can you give me and answer

Please sir you know it doesn't seem fair
