Oh once I was a young man

Looked over vales and hi-lls

Saw myself a future

But on me fifteenth birthday

  Cm            Ab Eb
I paid my union du-es

         Bb      Ab            Eb
And they sent me deep into the ground

I shall never leave here till I die

   Eb
Oh once I had a family

Cm               Ab  Eb
Sons to make you pro-ud

They have gone and left me now,

And I count the time out loud

For now I am an old man

     Cm             Ab Eb
Just waiting for my tu-rn

Till they take me back into the ground

Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry

She meant all the world to me-e

But I was only forty-seven

          Cm                 Ab Eb
when they took her down from me-e

    Bb         Ab     Eb
And buried her deep...

       Bb                      Eb
Oh the winter wind can blow me colder

       Bb                Cm       Eb
Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry

         Ab                          Eb
But I'll love these dark, dark hills forever

      Bb                           Eb
And I won't leave them now until I die
