Dark As A Dungeon Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Come all ye young fellers,
so [C]young and so [D]fine
[G]Seek not your fortune
in a [C]dark dreary [G]mind
It'll fall as it happens deep [C]in your [D]soul
Till the [G]stream of your blood
runs as [C]black as the [G]coal
It's [D]dark as a dungeon,
it's [C]damp as the dew
[G]The [D]danger's a double,
the [C]pleasure's a [G]few
Where the rain never falls
and the [C]sun never [D]shines
It's [G]dark as a dungeon
way [C]down in the [G]mines[C][G]
Now, it's many a man
I've [C]seen in my [D]day
Who [G]lived just to labor
his [C]whole life [G]away
Like a fiend with his coke,
a [C]drunkard [D]his wine
A [G]man will have lust for a [C]lure of the [G]mind
It's [D]dark as a dungeon,
it's [C]damp as the [G]dew
The [D]danger's a double,
the [C]pleasure's a few
[G]Where [C]the[G] rain never falls,
the [C]sun never [D]shines
It's [G]dark as a dungeon
way [C]down in the [G]mines[C][D][G]
[C][G][C][G][C][D][G]
[C][G]
And I hope when I die and [C]the ages do [D]roll
My [G]body will blacken and [C]turn into coal
[G]When I look through the door
of my [C]heavenly [D]home
I [G]pity the miner who's [C]diggin' my [G]bone
It's [D]dark as the dungeon,
it's [C]damp as the [G]dew
The [D]danger's a double,
the [C]pleasure's a [G]few
Where the rain never falls,
the [C]sun never [D]shines
It's [G]dark as a dungeon
way [C]down in the [G]mines
Where the rain never falls,
the [C]sun never [D]shines
It's [G]dark as a dungeon
way [C]down in the [G]mine

[Outro 1]
