[Verse]
A#m C#
In a johnson county holler
D#m F#
where the mining company blooms
A#m C#
He lived in a house with all 5 brothers
D#m F#
his dearest sister too
A#m C#
The summer heat was bad as the mug
D#m F#
that the humid air did brew
A#m
In the winter the snow just
C# D#m
blows on in through holes in the wall
F#
you could throw a dog through
[Bridge]

[Verse]
A#m C#
As an able bodied boy
D#m F#
he lied about his age
A#m C#
To help his father break away
D#m F#
from the rattle of a poor man's ball and chain
A#m C#
They made him shoot their coal
D#m F#
and he was grateful at the time
A#m C#
but there was many a boy who had done
D#m A#m
the same and they never came out alive
[Corus]
A#m C#
Better run coal shooter run
D#m F#
run away as fast as you can
A#m C#
When you get to the end of the tunnel
D#m F#
just keep on running my friend
A#m C#
Cause this ain't no kind of life
D#m F#
that a young man should live
A#m
If you can run faster than
C# D#m A#m
gunpowder burns you might see the light again
[Verse]
A#m C#
Well they were biting down on blasting caps
D#m F#
just doing like daddy asked
A#m C#
Even though they knew that the next bite down
D#m F#
could surely be their last
A#m C#
Ain't got no time to be scared no
D#m F#
with dynamite in your hands
A#m C#
Don't hesitate boy cause if you slip up
D#m A#m
son you're as good as dead

[Verse]
A#m C#
They sent him deep into the mine
D#m F#
where a boy cant see the light of day
A#m C#
Guided by the lamp
D#m
on his head in the dark
F#
He begins to pray
A#m C#
that the fuses were all cut right
D#m F#
and that a stray spark don't take light
A#m C#
praise that he won't die in this mine
D#m F# C# A#m
He hates the thought of mama crying...

A#m
If you can run faster than
C# D#m A#m
gunpowder burns you might see the light again
D#m A#m
You might see the light again
