Gm A#
In a johnson county holler
Cm D#
where the mining company blooms
Gm A#
He lived in a house with all 5 brothers
Cm D#
his dearest sister too
Gm A#
The summer heat was bad as the mug
Cm D#
that the humid air did brew

In the winter the snow just
A# Cm
blows on in through holes in the wall
D#
you could throw a dog through

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

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