Intro
F#m
[Verse 1]
F#m D F#m
Travelin' down that coal town road
A E F#m
Listenin' to my rubber tires whine
F#m D F#m
Goodbye to Buckeye and white Sycamore
A E F#m
I'm leavin' you behind
A E F#m
I've been a coal miner all of my life
F#m E D E
Layin' down track in the hole
A D A
Got a back like an ironwood, bent by the wind
F#m E F#m
Blood veins blue as the coal
D E F#m
Blood veins blue as the coal
[Verse 2]
F#m D F#m
Somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo
A E F#m
you have on the side of your head"
F#m D F#m
I said, "That's the blueprint left by the coal
A E F#m
Just a little more and I'd be dead"
A E F#m
But I love the rumble and I love the dark
F#m E D E
I love the cool of the slate
A D A
But it's on down the new road, lookin' for a job
D E F#m
This travelin' and lookin' I hate
[Verse 3]
F#m D F#m
I've stood for the union, walked in the line,
A E F#m
fought against the company
F#m D F#m
Stood for the U.M.W. of A.
A E F#m
Now, who's gonna stand for me?
A E F#m
I've got no house and I got no pay,
F#m E D E
just got a worried soul
A D A
And this blue tattoo on the side of my head,
F#m E F#m
left by the number nine coal
D E F#m
Left by the number nine coal
[Verse 4]
F#m D F#m
Someday when I die and go
A E F#m
to heaven, the land of my dreams
F#m D F#m
I won't have to worry on losin' my job,
A E F#m
to bad times or big machines
A E F#m
I'm not goin' to pay my money away
F#m E D E
for dues or hospital plans
A D A
I'm gonna pick coal while the blue heavens roll
D E F#m
and sing with the angel band
[Outro]
A E F#m
I'm not goin' to pay my money away
F#m E D E
for dues or hospital plans
A D A
I'm gonna pick coal while blue heavens roll
F#m E F#m
and sing with the angel band
