Verse 1
They (G major) stand so proud,
the wheels so still
A ghost- like (A minor) fig ure on (G major) the hill
It seems so strange, there is no sound
Now there are no (A minor) men under (G major) ground

So tired and weary,

Never hav (A minor) ing seen (G major) the
sun!

There'll always be a happy (A minor) hour

They'll never realise the hurt
They (D major) cause to (A minor) men they (G major) treat like dirt

Asking if men once worked here
Way beneath this pit head gear?

There'll always be (D major) a
Verse 4
(G major) happy hour (A minor)
(G major) For those with money, jobs and power
They'll never realise the hurt
They (D major) cause (G major) to men (A minor) they treat (G major) like dirt
