Tom: G
G C D
Come all you young fellers, so young and so fine
G C G
And seek not your fortunes way down in the mine
G G D
It will form like a habit and seep in your soul
G C G
'Til the stream of your blood flows as black as the coal
D C G
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
D C G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G C D
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G C G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G C D
There is many a man I have seen in my day
G C G
Who lived just to labor his whole life away
G C D
Like the fiend with his dope and the drunkard his wine
G C G
A man will have lust for the lure of the mine
D C G
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
D C G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G C D
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G C G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G C D
I hope when I'm dead and the ages shall roll
G C G
That my body will blacken and turn into coal
G C D
I will look from the door of my heavenly home
G C G
And pity the miner a' diggin' my bones
D C G
It's dark as a dungeon an d damp as the dew
D C G
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
G C D
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
G C G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G C G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
G C G
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
