🎸 Verse 1:

E
"Look at her" my friend said,
A
Pointing down the road.
B
"You can tell by how she looks
    A             E
She wears a heavy load".

🎸 Verse 2:

E
So we stood and watched her,
A

Didn't say a word,
B
But she must have read our thoughts
   A               E
For this is what we heard:

🎸 Chorus:

       E
”Union silver has taken my whole life,
                                     B
From my teens to the sixty years I'm living now.
B7
Lord, have mercy on me,
Come and look upon me,
                                  E
Make a smile show once more on my face!
E
Union silver is gone before it's made
    G#                                   Bm
And I could feel my shoes won't wear the winter cold.
    A
Can you tell mе, my friend,
      E
Where it's all gonna end,
       F#                           B7
'Cause union silver doesn't want to know?
Oh, Lord, I'm  ”

🎸 Verse 3:

E
Then we walked on by her
A
Leaving her alone,
B
Not a word was spoken
      A                 E
As we made our way back home.

🎸 Verse 4:

E
To this day I see her,
A
See her standing there,
  B
A mining town, a miner's wife
     A                  E
With coal dust in their hair.

🎸 Chorus:

       E
”Union silver has taken my whole life,
                                     B
From my teens to the sixty years I'm living now.
B7
Lord, have mercy on me,
Come and look upon me,
                                  E
Make a smile show once more on my face!
E
Union silver is gone before it's made
    G#                                   Bm
And I could feel my shoes won't wear the winter cold.
    A
Can you tell mе, my friend,
      E
Where it's all gonna end,
       F#                           B7
'Cause union silver doesn't want to know?
Oh, Lord, I'm  ”
