[A]
Come listen, you fellas, [D] so young [E] and so fine,
[A] And seek not your fortune in [D] the dark [A] dreary mind.
It'll form as a habit [D] and seep in [E] your soul,
[A] Till the stream of your blood [D] is as black as the [A] cold.
[E] It's dark as a dungeon [D] and damp [A] as the dew,
[E] Where troubles are doubled and [D]
pleasures [A] are few.
For the rain never falls and [D] the sun [E] never shines.
[D] It's [A] dark as a dungeon way [D]
down in [A] the mine.
Well, [D] [A]
I hope when I'm gone and [D] the ages [G] [E] shall roll,
[A] My body will [D] turn into [A] coal.
Then I'll look from the door of [D] my heavenly [E] home,
[A] And pity the miner [D]
digging my [A] bone.
[E] It's dark as a dungeon [D] and damp [A] as the dew,
[E] Where danger is doubled and [D] pleasures [A] are few.
For the rain never falls [D] and the sun [E] never shines.
[A] It's dark as a dungeon [D] way down in [A] the mine.
Come listen, you fellas, [D] so young [E] and so fine,
[A] And seek not your fortune in [D] the dark [A] dreary mind.
It'll form as a habit [D] and seep in [E] your soul,
[A] Till the stream of your blood [D] is as black as the [A] cold.
[E] It's dark as a dungeon [D] and damp [A] as the dew,
[E] Where troubles are doubled and [D]
pleasures [A] are few.
For the rain never falls and [D] the sun [E] never shines.
[D] It's [A] dark as a dungeon way [D]
down in [A] the mine.
Well, [D] [A]
I hope when I'm gone and [D] the ages [G] [E] shall roll,
[A] My body will [D] turn into [A] coal.
Then I'll look from the door of [D] my heavenly [E] home,

[E] It's dark as a dungeon [D] and damp [A] as the dew,
[E] Where danger is doubled and [D] pleasures [A] are few.
For the rain never falls [D] and the sun [E] never shines.
[A] It's dark as a dungeon [D] way down in [A] the mine.
