[E]
[A] [E]
Oh come all you young fellers, [A] young [B] and so fine,
[E] Seek not your fortune in [A] the dark [E] dreary mind,
It'll form as a habit and [A]
seep in [B] your soul,
[E] Till a stream of your blood becomes [A] as black as the [E] coal,
Where [B] it's dark as a dungeon, [A] damp as the [E] dew,
[B] Dangerous nothing,
[A] pleasures are [E] few,
Where the rain never falls, [A] the sun [B] never shines,
[E] It's dark as a dungeon, [A] way down in [E] the mine,
[A] [E]
Well I pray when I'm dead [A] and the ages [B] shall roll,
That my [E] body will blacken [A] and turn [E] into coal,
Then I'll look from the door [A] of my [B] heavenly home,
[E] And pity the miner [A] digging [E] my bone,
Where [B] it's dark as a dungeon, [A] damp as [E] the dew,
[Bb] [B] Dangerous nothing, [A] and the pleasures are [E] few,
Where the rain never falls, [Bb] [A] the sun [B] never shines,
[E] It's dark as a dungeon, [A] way down in [E] the mine.

Where the rain never falls, [A] the sun [B] never shines,
[E] It's dark as a dungeon, [A] way down in [E] the mine,

Where the rain never falls, [Bb] [A] the sun [B] never shines,
[E] It's dark as a dungeon, [A] way down in [E] the mine.
