That Deep Dark Hole

Bm G I got coal on my face, coal on my tongue Bm G I got coal on my hands, coal in my lungs Bm G I used to have a farm where I worked my days A Bm Above the cold rocky ground, the cold rocky ground D A Now it’s… Coal on my face, coal on my tongue G A I got coal on my hands, coal in my lungs D A I’m an old coal miner and I’ll always be G Bm God help me if I change, help me if I change Bm G Carrie got the flu and she died last spring Bm G Her mama took the boys away for a proper raising Bm G Now their growing up, gonna touch the sky A Bm I’ll see ’em be men, before I die D A Now it’s… Coal on my face, coal on my tongue G A I got coal on my hands, coal in my lungs D A I’m an old coal miner and I’ll always be G Bm God help me if I change, help me if I change Bm G Now that old coal mine, it is killing me Bm G That’s the way it is, and I guess will always be Bm G I’ll keep on pushing skids til the boss tells me to stop A Bm I hope that it’s before, before I drop D A Now it’s… Coal on my face, coal on my tongue G A I got coal on my hands, coal in my lungs D A I’m an old coal miner and I’ll always be G Bm God help me if I change, help me if I change
