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