[F]
[Eb] [F]
I've got muscle [Eb] and blood, [F] muscle and blood, skin [Eb] and bone, [C] and the mind last week, and the back that's strong.
You look 16, son, I'm watching you again.
[F]
Another day over there, deeper and insane.
But won't you [Bb] call me, cause I [Cm] can't go.
I owe my [F] soul to the dawn for his own.
[Eb] [F]
I was born one morning and the sun didn't shine.
Picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine.
I loaded 16 tons of number 9 coal and [G] straw balls.
Said, well, bless my [F] soul, you loaded 16 [Fm] tons.
I'm watching you again.
Another day over there, deeper and insane.
But won't you call [Bb] me, cause I [Eb] can't go.
[C] I owe my soul to the dawn for his own.
[F]
I was born one morning, it was drizzling rain.
Fighting in trouble, I'm climbing rain.
I was raised on a cane, break my own [Eb] mind.
You [F] know I don't want me.
Walk the line, you load 16 tons.
[Fm] I'm watching you again.
Another day over there, deeper and insane.
But won't you [Bb] call me, cause I can't [C] go.
I owe my soul to the dawn for his own.
[Fm]
[Bb] [F]
[C] [F]
[Fm] [F]
If you see me come and better set aside.
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died.
One fist of iron, the other [Ebm] steel.
And [F] if the right one [E] don't get you, then the left one will.
[Fm] You load 16 tons.
I'm watching you again.
Another day over there, deeper and insane.
But won't you [Bb] call me, cause I can't [C] go.
I owe my soul.
I owe my soul.
I owe my [Ab] soul [C] to the dawn for his own.
[Fm] I owe my [F] soul.
[Eb] [F]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] I owe my soul to [Bb] the dawn for his own.
