Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Well, [D]I was borned a
[G]coal miner's [D]daughter
In a cabin, on a [E]hill in Butcher [A]Holler
We were [D]poor, but we had love
That's the [G]one thing that
daddy made [D]sure of
He shoveled coal to [A]make
a poor man's [D]dollar

[Verse 2]
My [D]daddy worked all [G]night in
the Van Lear [D]coal mines
All day long in [E]the field a [A]hoin'corn
Mommy [D]rocked the babies at night
And read the [G]Bible by the coal oil [D]light
And ever' thing would start all [A]over
come break of morn'
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Bb]
Daddy [Eb]loved and raised eight
[Ab]kids on a miner's [Eb]pay
[Bb]Mommy [Eb]scrubbed our clothes on
a [F]washboard every [Bb]day
Why, I've [Eb]seen her fingers bleed
To com[Ab]plain, there was no [Eb]need
She'd smile in mommy's
[Bbm]under [Bb]stan[Bbm]d ing [Bb]way
[Eb]

[Verse 4]
[Bb]In the s[Eb]ummertime we d[Ab]idn't
have shoes [Eb]to wear
But in the wintertime we'd [F]all
get a brand new [Bb]pair
From a [Eb]mail order catalog
Money [Ab]made from selling a ho[Eb]g
Daddy always managed to [Bb]get the
money [Eb]some[B]where

[Verse 5]
Yeah, [E]I'm proud to be [Em]a
[A]coal miner's [E]daughter
I remember well,
[F#]the well where I drew wa[B]ter
The [E]work we done was hard
At night we'd [A]sleep 'cause we were [E]tired
I never thought of ever
[B]leaving Butcher [E]Holler

[Verse 6]
Well, a [E]lot of things have [A]changed
since a way back [E]then
And it's so good to [F#]be
back home [B]again
Not much [E]left but the floor,
nothing [A]lives here any[E]more
Except the memories of a
[B]coal miner's [E]daughter
