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