[Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
Oh, come all you young fellers, [Ab] so young and [Bb] so fine,
[Eb]
Seek not your fortune [Ab] in the dark dreary [Eb] mine.
It'll form as a habit [Ab] and seep [Bb] in your soul,
[Eb] Till the stream of your blood runs [Ab] as black [Eb] as the coal.
Where [Bb] it's dark as a dungeon, [Ab]
damp [Eb] as the dew,
[Bb] Danger is double, pleasures [Eb] are few.
Where the rain never falls, [Ab] the sun [Bb] never shines,
[Eb] It's dark as a dungeon [Ab] way down in the [Eb] mine.
Well, there's many a man [Ab] that I've seen in [Bb] my day,
[Eb] No laughing during the song, please.
[Ab]
It's been [Eb] recorded, I know, hell, don't you know it's recorded?
Like a fair with his dope [Ab] and a drop bird with [Bb] his wine,
[Eb] A man will have lust for [Ab] the lure of [Eb] the mine.
And the prey when I'm dead [Ab] and my ages [Bb] shall roll,
[Eb] That my body would blacken [Ab] and turn [Eb] into coal.
Then I'd look from the door [Ab] of my [Bb] heavenly home
[Eb] And pity the miner [Ab]
digging [Eb] my bones.
Where [Bb] it's dark as a dungeon, [Ab] damp [Eb] as the dew,
[B] [Bb] Danger is double, [Ab] pleasures are [Eb] few.
Where the rain [Eb] never falls, [Ab] the sun [Bb] never shines,
[Eb] It's dark as a dungeon [Ab] way down [Eb] in the mine.
[Ebm] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] Thank you very much.
