"Harry Stone (Hearts of Coal)" - John Tams - Unity - 2000
Transcribed by wranglingoutlaw
C majorC A minorAm
Harry Stone was a miner born
G+G C majorC
He worked to win His wages
G+G C majorC
Riding down the cages
A minorAm G+G
And raging at the seams
C majorC A minorAm
He worked his stall from dusk till dawn
G+G C majorC
Sweet sweat and raw endeavour
G+G C majorC
Black diamonds bound together
A minorAm G+G
By a strong and simple means
C majorC A minorAm
He met a girl from Ironville
G+G C majorC
He promised He would love Her
G+G C majorC
He?d put no-one above Her
A minorAm G+G
At last They went to town
C majorC A minorAm
He promised He would love Her
G+G C majorC
Til the blackbirds stopped their singing
G+G C majorC
The mission bell stopped ringing
A minorAm G+G
And they closed the coal pit down
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
Left out in the cold , cold
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
They broke the hearts of coal, Hearts of coal
C majorC A minorAm
They raised Their children chapel proud
G+G C majorC
The lamb and the flag to guide Them
G+G C majorC
They each strove to provide Them
A minorAm G+G
With a sense of right from wrong
C majorC A minorAm
And when the strikes and lock-outs came
G+G C majorC
And bare-foot hunger tried Them
G+G C majorC
All hopes were denied Them
A minorAm G+G
Their unity held strong
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
Left out in the cold , cold
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
They broke the hearts of coal, Hearts of coal

C majorC A minorAm
Forty years of coal-dust
G+G C majorC
Is a lot of pain to carry
G+G C majorC
It made a cripple out of Harry
A minorAm G+G
But His family came and took up His tools
C majorC A minorAm
And they faced the Orgreave cavalry
G+G C majorC
While the world looked on and wondered
G+G C majorC
Their right to work was plundered
A minorAm G+G
By the statesman-ship of fools
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
Left out in the cold , cold
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
They broke the hearts of coal, Hearts of coal
C majorC A minorAm
The ?Enemy Within? They cried
G+G C majorC
And the boney finger pointed
G+G C majorC
Dripping gold from the anointed
A minorAm G+G
At the beggar and Her bowl
C majorC A minorAm
And just like the Union said He would
G+G C majorC
The axeman came in dancing
G+G C majorC
His psychopathic prancing
A minorAm G+G
Chopped out the hearts of coal
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
Left out in the cold , cold
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
They broke the hearts of coal, Hearts of coal
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
Left out in the cold , cold
DmDm A minorAm G+G
Where are You tonight now We need You ?
DmDm FF C majorC G+G
They broke the hearts of coal, Hearts of coal

He promised He would love Her
G+G C majorC
