[Verse 1]
[C]Oh,[F] yo[C]ung[F] fe[C]llow,
so [F]young and so [F#]fine,
[G]And see[C]k not your fortune
in the [E]dark, dreary [C]mine,[B]
[C]It will form as a habit
and [F]seep in [F#]your soul[G]
Till [D]the stream [C]of you[B]r life -bl[C]ood
is [F]dark as the [C]coal
[E]It's [F#]dark as a dungeon,
[E]damp as the[C] dew
Where the [G]dangers [F#]are double
an[G]d the [E]pleasures [F]are [C]few
Where the rain never falls
and the [F]sun never [Dm]shines[G]
It's [B]dark as a dungeon
[C]way [F]down in the [C]mine[B][C][F]
[C][G][C][B][F][F#][G][B][F][C]
I hope when I [B]die
[C]and [F]the ages [E]shall rol[F#]l
My [C]body [B]will [C]blacken and [F]turn [C]into
I'll [B]take [C]a look from my h[F]eavenly h[F#]all,[G]
And [C]pity [B]the miner[C]s
a [F]-diggin' my [C]bones.
It's many a man I've [F]seen in my day
[F#]That[G] lives[B] just to labor[C]
his [E]poor life away
[C]Like a fiend with his dough,
a [E]drunkard his [F#]wine,[G]
A [B]man will have lust
for [C]the [F]lure of [C]the mind.
[E]It's [F#]dark as a dun[G]geon,
[E]damp [F]as [C]a dew,
where the [F#]dangers are double
an[F]d the pleasures are few.
[C]Where the rain never falls,
and the [F]sun never [Dm]shines.[G]
It's [C]dark as a dungeon,
[F]way down in the [F]mines.[C]
you
