Working Man chords by Matt Minglewood

Chorus

       D                          G                 D
It's a Working Man I am, and I've been down under - ground, and
    D                             A
I swear to God, if I ever see the sun,
       D                         G             D
Or for any length of time, I can hold it in my mind,
   D               A               D
I never again will go down under - ground.

VERSE 1

       D                           G                 D
At the age of sixteen years, oh he quarrels with his peers,
                                   A
Who vowed they'd never see another one,
       D                                  G               D
In the dark recess of the mine, Where you age before your time, and
    D              A             D
The coal dust lies heavy on your lungs.
