[Verse 1]
Oh [E]say [Em]did you see him
It was [Asus2]early this mor[E]ning[Em]
He passed all your houses [E]on
His [Asus4]way to th[Asus2]e coal[Em]
He was tall, he was [E]slender[Em]
And his [Asus2]dark eyes so t[Em]ende[E]r
[Em]His occupati[G]on was mining[Asus2]
West Virginia his [E]home[Em]
[E][D][Asus2][E]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
It was [E]just before [D]twelve
I was [A]feed[Asus2]ing the children[Esus4]
[E]Ben Mosley came run[D]ning to
[Asus2]bring us the new[Bsus4]s
Number [Em]eight is all [D]flooded
Many [Asus2]men are in dange[Em]r
And we [G]don't know their num[Asus2]ber
But we fear they're [E]all doomed
[Em][E][D][A]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
[E]So I picked [Em]up t[E]he b[D]aby and
I [Asus2]left all the othe[E]rs
[Em]To comfort each [D]other and to
[A]Pray [Asus2]for their own there[Bsus4]'s Tommy,[Em]
four[D]teen
And there's [A]John [Asus2]not much younger[Em]
Their own time soon will be [Asus2]coming
To go down the [A]black [E]hole
[Em][D]

[Interlude 1]
[A][Em]

[Verse 4]
[Em]And what will I say to
[Asus2]His poor little [A]chil[Em]dren
And what will [E]I tell his d[Esus4]ear
[A]mother [Asus2]at home[Bsus4]
And [Em]what will [E]I s[Em]ay to
My [Asus2]heart that's clear bro[Em]ken
To my [G]heart that's clear [Asus2]broken
If my baby is [Em]gone

[Interlude 2]
[D][A][Em][E][D][A][Asus2][Bsus4][Em]
[D][A][Em][E][Em][G][A][Asus2][Esus4][E][Esus4][E]
[Em]Now if

[Verse 5]
I had the money to
Do more than just feed them
I'd give them good [E]learning
[A]The be[Asus2]st could be fou[Bm]nd
[Em]So when they growed
[D]up they'd
[A]Be checkers and [E]weigh[Em]ers
And not [G]spend their life [A]digging[Asus2]
In the dark [A]underground[Em]
[D][Esus4]

[Interlude 3]
[Asus2][Em]

[Verse 6]
Say did [Em]you see him
It was [Asus2]early this mor[Em]ning
He passed all your houses on
His [A]way [Asus2]to the coal[Bsus4]
He was [Em]tall, he was [Esus4]slender[Em]
And his [A]dark [Asus2]eyes so t[Em]ender
His occu[G]pation was min[Asus2]ing
West Vir[A]ginia his [Em]home
[D][A][Asus2][A]
