[D] [A]
[D] Well, I was [G] born to a [D] coal miner's daughter In a cabin [E] on a hill [A] in Butcher Holler
We [D] were poor but we had love [G] That's the one thing that [D] Daddy made sure of
He shoveled [A] coal to make a [D] poor man's dollar My Daddy [G] worked all night in [D] an endless coal
mine All day [E] long in the field [A] of hoeing corn
[Db] Mommy [D] brought the babies at night [G] And read the Bible by the [D] coal oil light
And everything would [A] start all over again [D] [Bb] [Eb] Daddy loved [Ab] to take kids on [Eb] a miner's pace
Mommy scrubbed our [F] clothes on a [Bb] washboard every day
While [Eb] I'd seen her fingers bleed [Fm] To complain [Eb] there was no need
She'd smile in [Bb] Mommy's [Eb] understanding way In the summertime [Ab] we didn't have [Eb] shoes to wear
But in the [F] wintertime we'd all get a [Bb] brand new pair
[Eb] From a mail-order cattle [Ab] money made from [Eb] selling a hog
Daddy always [Bb] managed to get the [Eb] money [B] somewhere
