Eb
Verse 1
all you young fellows,
Ab
Bb
so young and so fine,
Ab
Eb
in the dark, dreary mind
Ab
It'll form as a habit and seep in your soul
Bb
Eb
Till the stream of your blood
Ab
Eb
runs as black as the coal
Ab
Eb
damp as a dew
Bb
Ab
Eb
Danger is double, pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls,
Ab
Bb
the sun never shines
Ab
Eb
way down in the mine
Well, there's many a man
Ab
Bb
that I've seen in my day
Ab
Eb
It's been recorded, I know, hell.
Don't you know it's recorded?
Like a pig with his stove
Ab
Bb
And a dropper with his wine
Ab
Eb
the lure of the mind
And I pray when I'm dead
Bb
Eb
That my body would blacken
Ab
Eb
and turn into coal
Then I'd look from the door
Ab
Bb
of my heavenly home
Eb
Ab
Eb
And pity the miner digging my bones
Ab
Eb
damp as a dew
Bb
Ab
Dangerous doubles, pleasures are few
Ab
Bb
the sun never shines
Ab
Eb
way down in the mines
Thank you very much,
thank you very much
Sorry about that little interruption
there
But I just wanted to tell you
that this show is being recorded
For an album release on Columbia
Records
And you can't say hell or s***
or anything like that
How does that grab you, Bob?
How did you like the song?
