[Intro] N.C. E A E A [Verse 1]
            A
Well it's over the hills and around we go

  E            A
Bound to go, down we go

    A
Digging up the devil in Jellico

   E                  A
Rocking in the weary land

          A
Hang your number on a nail and hold the line

       E               A
It's hard times in the coal mine

        A
Take one last look at that sunshine

      E                  A
And follow them boys on in
[Chorus]
  A     D    A
Brave Boys here, Brave Boys there

 A   D       A           E                   A
Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land

 A     D        A                            F#m
Gals fill the whiskey jar, kiss your loving man

Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land

        A
Here's to Old Black Pete and Spanish Joe

       E                    A
They sleep five thousand feet below

     A
We laid their bones on a bed of coal

   E                  A
Rocking in the weary land

        A
And the Bog Head Boys they dug for a dollar

          E                              A
'Til the roof caved in you could hear them holler

      A
Went in six feet came out a bit smaller

    E                  A
Rocking in the weary land
[Chorus]
  A     D    A
Brave Boys here, Brave Boys there

 A   D       A           E                   A
Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land

 A     D        A                            F#m
Gals fill the whiskey jar, kiss your loving man

[Verse 3]
         E                       A
So it's goodbye gals we've got to go
Cause a miner's life is all we know
          A
Just to make a little dough way down in a hole

  E                    A
Rocking in the weary land

          A
And it's when we die neath six feet of rubble

        E                       A
You can bury our bones with a pick and a shovel

          A
Tell old King Coal we're a heap worth of trouble

     E                 A   E E7
Rocking in the weary land
[Chorus]
  A     D    A
Brave Boys here, Brave Boys there

 A   D       A           E                   A
Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land

 A     D        A                            F#m
Gals fill the whiskey jar, kiss your loving man

 A   D     A             E                  A
Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land

  A D       A              E                A
Hey ho the Brave Boys rocking in the weary land
