Steve Earle – Harlan Man (Guitar)

D   C G/B    D
I'm a Harlan Man

G                                D
Went down in the mine when I was barely grown

C G/B D
It was easy  then

A           D
'Cause I didn't know what I know now

C   G/B D
But I'm a family  man

G                                D
And it's the only life that I've ever known

C  G/B D
But I'm a Harlan Man

A        D
Just as long as my luck and lungs hold out

D   C  G/B     D
I'm a mountain man

G                         D
Born in east Kentucky and here I'll stay

D        C      G/B         D
And if it's the good Lord's plan

G                          D
I'll wake up in the mornin' and find

D       C    G/B   D
I'm lookin' at the end

G                                   D
Of another long week and I can draw my pay

D      C     G/B    D
'Cause I'm a Harlan Man

A           D
Never catch me whinin' cause I ain't that kind

D   C   G/B   D
I'm a union man

G                          D
Just like my daddy and all my kin

D      C G/B   D
I took a union stand

G                     D
No matter what the company said

D        C   G/B  D
I got me two good hands

G                                     D
And just as long as I'm able I won't give in

D          C G/B    D
'Cause I'm a Harlan Man

A      D
A coal minin' mother 'til the day I'm dead
