Tonalidad: C major
Verse 1
C
To those who know no bitter
Dm
F
C
and to those who do not care
I'll try my friends to tell you
G
what a miner has to bear
C
When your servant fires the furnaces,
F
G
C
the smoke and blazes roll
Won't you stop and think who suffers
G
C
for that little lump of coal?
Well he gets up in the morning
Dm
F
C
while you're in the land of Nod
And at the family altar
G
he kneels and asks God
C
To care for him and protect him
Dm
F
while he's under the ground
C
So he can come home in the evening
G
C
G
C
to his family safe and sound.
He eats a hearty breakfast,
F
C
and he fixes his carbide flask.
Picks up his lamp and bucket,
Dm
G
then he's ready for his task.
C
And soon he's beneath the surface
Dm
F
With a car up in his place
C
As he swings his pick and shovel
G
C
The sweat pours down his face
Then he lines up at the office
Dm
F
C
With the others in a row
His statement signed and ready
G
For a little bit of dope
C
And everything he's buying
Dm
F
C
is a way up in the air.
Do you think what he's asking
G
is anything unfair?
C
You can tell your friends and neighbors,
F
C
your servants and your wife.
The plaster on the office wall
G
can't crush out your life.
C
For it is a dirty miner,
Dm
F
C
an humble sort of mole,
That takes so dangerous chances
G
C
F
C
for that little lump of coal.
