Misc Originals – Colton Richards - Coal Miners Heart (Guitar)

  Am                   C
From deep beneath the mountains

   E                  Am
A light shines in the dark

                  C
A coal miner's dedication

     E             Am
Can light up the smallest spark

                    C
With pickaxe in his hand

     E              Am
And sweat upon his brow

                   C
He digs into the earth

     E                  Am
To bring the light back out

                                 C
A coal miner's heart beats to a different tune

      E                     Am
His soul is as black as the coal

           Am                      C
For his spirit is as tough as the rocks he pick

             E                     Am
This is the beat of a coal miners heart

 Am                    C
Days can be long and tiresome

          E          Am
But his will never breaks

                      C
He keeps on working tirelessly

    E             Am
For his family's sake

                      C
In the belly of the earth

      E               Am
He faces danger every day

                               C
But the thought of a brighter future

            E            Am
Keeps that Boys fear at bay

   Am                                  C
A coal miner's heart beats to a different tune

      E                     Am
His soul is as black as the coal

           Am                      C
For his spirit is as tough as the rocks he pick

             E                     Am
This is the beat of a coal miners heart

     Am                                 C
A coal miner's heart beats to a different tune

      E                     Am
His soul is as black as the coal

           Am                      C
For his spirit is as tough as the rocks he pick

             E                     Am
This is the beat of a coal miners heart

Am
So let's raise a glass

        C
To the ones who dig deep

          E
Their sacrifice unseen

           Am
But their impact runs deep
