F Bb C F Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning Dm Bb F Bb And the sun goes down about three in the day F Bb C F And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' Dm Bb Dm And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away Dm F C G No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains Dm F Bb 'Til a man from the Northeast arrived Bb F C G Waving hundred dollar bills said, I'll pay you for your minerals Bb � A7 ` Dm But he never left Harlan alive
