[D] [A] [D]
[F#m] [E] [A] [D]
[A] It's a working man I am, [D] and I've been down underground.
[A] And I swear to God, if I ever see [E] the sun, [A] or for any length of time,
I [D] can hold it in [A] my mind, I never again will [E] go down under.
[A]
At the age of sixteen years, with [D] my father close [A] to tears,
As he vowed never again to send [E] his sons,
To [A] the dark recess of the mind, where [D] you age before [A] your time,
And the coal dust [E] lies heavy on [A] your lungs.
It's a working man I am, and [D] I've been down [A] underground.
And I swear to God, if I ever see [E] the sun, or [A] for any length of time,
I [D] can hold it in [A] my mind, I never again
[E] [A] will go down underground.
At the age of sixty-five, I pray [D] to God I'm [A] still alive,
And the wheels above the mines no [E] longer whine,
And [A] they finally close the hole, where [D] for years we [A] clawed coal,
And never again will [E] we go down [D] underground.
[G] [C] It's a working man I am, [F] and I've been down [C] underground.
And I swear to God, if I ever see [G] the sun, or [C] for any length of time,
I [F] can hold it in [C] my mind, I never again will [G] go down [C] underground.
It's a working man I am, [F] and I've been down [C] underground.
And I swear to God, if I ever see [G] the sun, or [C] for any length of time,
