[Am][C][G][D][Dm]

[Verse 1]
My hus[D]band,
[Am]Tom
Shane, was a [D]powder man
[Am]Worked at th[C]e [G]face in the [F]mine
[Am]26 years old, he knew no[D]thing bu[Dm]t coal
[Am]Cut lunc[C]h and the cloc[G]k in on time[D]
[Am]Monday through
Sunday's a [D]workday week
[Am]Three shif[C]ts a day i[G]n the shop[F]s
Sat[Am]urday, a miner gives [D]rest to his bones
[Am]Sund[C]ay, the nigh[G]t shifted star[D][Am][C][G]
[D]And it's hammer and[Am] tap
to [D]drive the drill[Am]s in
[C]Blast the sweat [G]track through
[F]the ground
[Am]Wedging in beams to pur
[D]sue that black [Am]seam
Ham[C]mer on [G]steel's the sole [D]sound
Some
Austri[Am]an duke stopped
the [D]bullet of lead
[Am]Hugh [C]shamed a man[G] of the[F] war
[Am]Tom neatly packed into a
[D]brown [Am]haversack
Si[C]lently [G]strode through
[D]the door[Am][C][G][D]
The pithead[Am]s cast wheels,
they [D]turned through the [Am]days
The [C]pit ponies a [G]year old [F]grew
Till a [Am]note came one day to of[D]ficially [Am]say
I'd [C]lost the best [G]man that I [D]knew
My grief [Am]for so long was
as [D]black as the mine
[Am]My children [C]a fath[G]erless brood
[F]My man[Am]y time seams
crowds [D]into my [Am]dreams
But I [C]still need that [G]cold cash for [D]food
[Am][C][G][F]
[Am][C][G][D]
[A]Lightly by [Am]night, the [D]gentle wind [Am]blows
[C]Below there they [G]still blast the [F]seams
By the [Am]pores of his skin,
you'll know [D]a modern coal [Am]man
No, [C]he's widowed by the [G]lack of her [D]means[Am][C][G][Am][C][G][Am]
[C][G][Am][C][G][Am][C]
[G][Am][C][G][Am][C][G][Am]
[C][G][Am]
