          G        C               G         C
A little girl woke up deep in the dark and started cryin'
     D                          C                 G
The mother brought a light and held her daughter tight
 G                       C               G              C
She thought it was so strange to hear a little girl of nine
          D                                       G
Cry call Daddy from the mine call daddy from the mine

Her mother wiped the tears and said see honey you're only dreaming
Your dad must work today he has to draw his pay
She left her then but still could hear her cry time after time
Call daddy from the mine call daddy from the mine

Then the countryside was shaken by a mighty rumble
And fear for miles around was the trembling of the ground
The little girl was fast asleep yet cried out one more time
Call daddy from the mine call daddy from the mine

Ten thousand tears and two weeks later deep in the smoking ground
A dying man was found had survived all those around
He'd quickly crawled to a fresh air pocket barely just in time
When he heard his own child whine call daddy from the mine
Call daddy from the mine call daddy from the mine
