[Verse 1]
F#m A Bm D
In Johnson county holler where the minin' comp'ny bloomed
F#m A Bm D
He lived in a house with all five brothers, his dearest sisters too
F#m A Bm D
The summer heat was as bad as the mud that the human air did brew
F#m A Bm D F#m
In the winter the snow just blowed on in through holes in the wall you could throw a dog through
F#m F#m
[Verse 2]
F#m A Bm D
As an able-bodied boy he lied about his age
F#m A Bm D
To help his father break away from the rattle of a poor man's ball and chain
F#m A Bm D
They made him shoot their coal and he was grateful at the time
F#m A Bm D F#m
There was many a boy that'd done the same and they'd never come out alive
F#m
[Chorus]
F#m A
Better run coalshooter run
Bm D
Run away as fast as you can
F#m A Bm D
And when you get to the end of the tunnel just keep on runnin' my friend
F#m A Bm D
Cause this ain't no kind of life that a young man should live
F#m A Bm D
If you can run faster than gunpowder burns you might see the light again
F#m
[Verse 3]
F#m A Bm D
Well they were bitin' down on blasting caps just doing like daddy asked
F#m A Bm D
Even though they knew that the next bite down could surely be their last
F#m A Bm D
You ain't got no time to be scared no, with dynamite in your hands
F#m A Bm D
Don't hesitate boy cause if you slip up, son you're as good as dead
F#m
[Chorus]
F#m A
Better run coalshooter run
Bm D
Run away as fast as you can
F#m A Bm D
And when you get to the end of the tunnel just keep on runnin' my friend
F#m A Bm D
Cause this ain't no kind of life that a young man should live
F#m A Bm D
If you can run faster than gunpowder burns you might see the light again
[Bridge]

F#m
[Verse 4]
F#m A Bm D
They sent him deep into the mine where a boy can't see the light of day
F#m A Bm D
Guided by the lamp on his head in the dark he begins
F#m A Bm D Bm
To pray that the fuses were all cut right and that a stray spark don't take light
A Bm D
And prays that he won't die in this mine, he hates the thought
F#m A Bm D
Mama cries
[Chorus]
F#m A
Better run coalshooter run
Bm D
Run away as fast as you can
F#m A Bm D
And when you get to the end of the tunnel just keep on runnin' my friend
F#m A Bm D
Cause this ain't no kind of life that a young man should live
F#m A Bm D
If you can run faster than gunpowder burns you might see the light again
