[B] [F#] A miner's life is like a sailor, [B] Bored of ship [C#] to cross the waves,
And [F#] every day his [D#] life's in danger, [F#] Many [G#m] ventures [C#] he [F#] embraced.
Watch the rocks, they're falling daily, [B] Careless [C#] miners always fail.
[F#] Keep your hand upon [D#m] your wages, [F#] And your [G#m] eye upon [C#] the scale.
[B] Union miners [D#] stand [F#] [C#] together, [F#] Do not [G#m] need the [C#] coal-born's tale.
Keep [F#] your hand upon [D#m] your wages, And your [C#] eye upon [B] the scale.

And [F#] what's the use in all [D#m] your working, [B] When your mining [C#] days are done?
[A#m] Worn-out shoes and [D#m] worn-out [C#] miners, [F#] Blackened lungs and faces pale.
[C#] [F#] Keep your hand upon your [D#m] wages, And [B] your eye [C#] upon the scale.
[B] Union miners stand [C#] together, [F#] Do not need the [C#] coal-born's tale.

[F#] In conclusion, bear in memory, Keep this password in your mind,
[D#m] Workers' strength cannot be broken, [B] When unions [C#] be combined.
Stand [A#m] up tall and [D#m] stand [D#] together, [B] Victory [C#] for [F#] you prevail.
[C#] [F#] Keep your hand upon [D#] your wages, [B] And your eye [C#] upon the scale.
