Oh come all you young fellers, [Ab] so young and so [Bb] fine,
[Eb] Seek not your fortune [Ab] in the dark dreary [Eb] mine.
_ _ It'll form as [Eb] a habit [Ab] and seep in [Bb] your soul,
Till [Eb] the stream of your blood runs [Ab] as black as the coal.
_ _ [Bb] Where it's dark as a dungeon, [Ab] _ damp [Eb] as a dew,
[C] _ _ [Bb] Danger is double, [Ab] pleasures are [Eb] few.
Where the rain never [Eb]
falls, [Ab] the sun never [Bb] shines,
It's [Eb] dark as a dungeon, [Ab] way down in the [Eb] mine.
_ _ _ _ Well, there's many a [Eb] man that [Ab] I've seen in my [Bb] day,
[Eb] No laughing during the song please. _
It's been [Eb] recorded, I know, hell, don't you know it's recorded?
_ Like a pig with his stope [Ab] and a dropbird with [Bb] his wife,
A man will howl bliss for [Ab] the lure of [Eb] the mine.
_ _ And to pray what I'm dead [Ab] and my ages [Bb] shall roll,
That my body would blacken [Ab] and turn into [Eb] coal.
_ _ And I'd look from the door [Ab] of my [Bb] heavenly home,
[Eb] And pity the miner [Ab] digging [Eb] my bones.
_ [Bb] Where it's dark as a dungeon, _ [Ab] damp as [Eb] a dew,
