Intro 1
(D major) (A7) (D major) (D major)
Verse 1
Well, I (D major) was borned (G major) a coal miner's (D major) daughter
In a cabin, on a (E7) hill in Butcher (A7) Holler
We were (D major) poor but we had (D7) love
That's the (G major) one thing that daddy made (D major) sure of
He shoveled coal to (A7) make a poor man's (D major) dollar

Verse 2
My daddy (D major) worked all (G major) night
in the Van Lear (D major) coal mines
All day long in the (E7) field a hoein' corn (A7)
Mommy (D major) rocked the babies at (D7) night
And read the (G major) Bible by the coal- oil light (D major)
And ever' thing would start all (A7) over
come break of (D major) morn (B flat7)
Verse 3
Daddy (E flat major) loved and raised eight (A flat major) kids
on a miner's (E flat major) pay
Mommy scrubbed our clothes
on a (F7) washboard ever' (B flat7) day
Why I've (E flat major) seen her fingers (E flat7) bleed
To com (A flat major) plain, there was no (E flat major) need
She'd smile in mommy's (B flat7) understanding (E flat major) way
Verse 4
In the (E flat major) summertime we (A flat major) didn't have
shoes to (E flat major) wear
But in the wintertime we'd all (F7) get
a brand new (B flat7) pair
From a (E flat major) mail order catalog (E flat7)
Money (A flat major) made from selling a hog (E flat major)
Daddy always managed to (B flat7) get the money
somewhere (E flat major) (B7)
Verse 5
Yeah, I'm (E major) proud to be a coal (A major) miner's (E major) daughter
I remember well, the (F sharp7) well where I drew water (B7)
The work (E major) we done was hard (E7)
At night we'd (A major) sleep 'cause we were (E major) tired
I never thought of ever (B7) leaving Butcher (E major) Holler
Verse 6
Well a (E major) lot of things have changed (A major)
since away back then (E major)
And it's so good to (F sharp7) be back home a (B7) gain
Not much (E major) left but the floor, (E7)
nothing (A major) lives here any (E major) more
Except the memories of a (B7) coal miner's
(E major) daughter
