Fm G# Now God made coal for the men who sold D# A# their lives to West Van Lear Fm G# And you keep on diggin' 'til you get D# A# down there where it's darker than your darkest fear. Fm G# And that woman in the kitchen she keeps D# A# on cookin' but she ain't had meat in years Fm G# Just live off bread and live off hope D# A# and a pool of a million tears. Now let me tell you somethin' 'bout the gospel And make sure that you mark it down When God spoke out "Let there be light" He put the first of us in the ground And we'll keep on diggin' 'til the comin' of the Lord And Gabriel's trumpet sounds 'Cause if you ain't minin' for the company boy There ain't much in this town Chorus: G# D# We coulda made somethin' of ourselves A# out there if we'd listened to the folks that knew G# D# A# That coal is gonna bury you Now it's darker than a dungeon And it's deeper than a well So sometimes I imagine That I'm gettin' pretty close to hell And in my darkest hour I cry out to the Lord He says "Keep on minin' boy 'Cause that's why you were born" Chorus: Well we could've made somethin' of ourselves out there if we'd listened to the folks that knew That coal is gonna bury you | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA#  D#  Fm  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
