[Intro]
Em G D A A A7 A7
Em G D A A A A
[Verse 1]
Em G D A Now God made coal for the men who sold their lives to West Van Lear Em G D A And you keep on diggin' 'til you get down there where it's darker than your darkest fears Em G D A And that woman in the kitchen she keeps on cookin' but she ain't had meat in years Em G D A A7 Just live off bread and live off hope and a pool of a million tears
[Verse 2]
Em G D A Now lemme tell you somethin' 'bout the gospel and make sure that you mark it down Em G D A When God spoke out "Let there be light" he put the first of us in the ground Em G D A And we'll keep on diggin' 'til the comin' of the Lord and Gabriel's trumpet sounds Em G D A A7 'Cause if you ain't minin' for the company, boy, there ain't much in this town
[Chorus]
G D A A7 We coulda made somethin' of ourselves out there if we'da listened to the folks that knew G D A That co---oa---oal is gonna bury you
[Solo]
Em G D A A x3
Em G D A A A7 A7
[Verse 3]
Em G D A Now it's darker than a dungeon and it's deeper than a well Em G D A So sometimes I imagine that I'm getting pretty close to hell Em G D A And in my darkest hour, I cry out to the Lord Em G D A A7 He says keep on a-minin' boy 'cause that's why you were born
[Chorus]
G D A A7 We coulda made somethin' of ourselves out there if we'da listened to the folks that knew G D A A7 That co---oa---oal is gonna bury you
[Solo]
Em G D A A x3
Em G D A7
