Mining for Gold / Chemical Workers Song | The Longest Johns chords
Start Jamming...
We are miners
Hard rock miners
To the shaft house we must go
oil
bottle on our
Shoulders we are marching to the slow
on the line boys on the line boys
drill your holes and stand in line
till the shift boss
comes to tell you
You must drill her out on top
Can you feel the rock dust in your lungs?
It'll cut down a miner when he is still young
Two years and the
Circosis takes hold and I feel like I'm dying
from mining for gold
Yes, I feel like I'm dying from mining for gold
A
Process [D] man am I and I'm telling you no lie
I work and breathe among the fumes that trail across the sky
There's a thunder [Cm] all around me [Bb] and a poison in [G] the air
There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in my hair and it's go boys [E] go
They'll time your every breath [D] and every day you're in this place you're two days near a death, but you go
I've worked among the spinners and breathe in the oily smoke
I've shoveled up the gypsum and it nigh on makes you choke
I've stood knee-deep [Cm] in sire [Bb] and I've been sick with [G] a caustic burn
Been working rough and seen enough [Dm] to make your stomach turn and it's go boys go
They'll time your every breath and every day you're in this place you two days near a death, [D] but you go
There's overtime and bonus opportunities galore
The young lads like the money and they all come back for more
But soon you're knocking [C] on and you look [Bb] older than you [G] should for every bob made [A] on this job
You'll pay with flesh and blood and it's go boys go
They'll time your every breath and every day you're in this place you two days [D] near a death, but you go boys [N] go
They'll time your every breath and every day you're in this place you two days near a death, [D] but you go
