[A]
[Bm]
[A] [B]
Seven years a miner, and mine for seven more.
[A] No better man on earth [Bm] now to move the mountain floor.
So load us in, that shippy, who drops down every day.
[A] No braver man on earth, [Bm] boys, no matter what they say.
[A] So tell God and the devil they [Bm] can try, [E] but today's not gonna be the [B] day we die.
Don't wanna see those helmet men come to carry [A] you.
The ground's so cold and hard, love, [G] they won't even bury [B] you.
So tap, tap, tap her lightly, slightly as she goes.
[A] You'd better take some cover [G] now and hide before [B] she blows.
[A] Get those picks [G] and shovels off [B] your backs.
[E] Get the rocks, and [F#m] toothbox, and down [Bm] the tracks.
[A]
[B] [D] There's muckers and [Bm] their skinner, and nippers on the drill.
[A] They'll work all day, like boys, [Bm] there's only miners will.
We'll chase rebellious copper, for the walls we'll pick and hack.
[A] Don't worry if you're digging, scared [Bm] us miners got your back.
So [A] tell God [G] and the devil they [Bm] can try, [E] but today's not gonna be the day [Bm] we die.

[B] God won't venture down here, the devil's lost your name.
Your life hangs in the balance [Bm] on this fragile human shape.
And when your spirit's waning, fear is yours to [A] tame.
When fear in the dark is [Bm] closing, turn up your carbide flame.
[A] And tell God and [G] the devil they [Bm] can try, [E] but today's not gonna be [Bm] the day we die.
[A] So tell God and [G] the devil they [Bm] can try, [E] but today's not gonna [F#m] be the day we die.
