Only A Miner

• C

C                              F            C 
Poor hardworking miners, their troubles are great 
                                        G 
So often while working, they meet a sad fate 
C                                F         C 
Killed by some accident, there's no one to tell 
                              G        C 
Their mining's all over, poor miner farewell 

F                    C 
Only a miner, killed under the ground 
                              G 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
C                 F           C 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
                           G        C 
Leaving his wife and four children alone 

C                       F          C       
Leaving his little ones out on the street 
                                 G 
Tired and hungry with nothing to eat 
C                    F       C 
Momma is jobless and papa is dead 
                              G           C 
They're coal miners' children, begging for bread 

F                    C 
Only a miner, killed under the ground 
                              G 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
C                 F           C 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
                          G         C 
Leaving his wife and four children alone 

C                        F          C 
When I'm in Kentucky, so often I'll meet 
                                 G 
Coal miners' children out on the street 
C                      F           C 
What are you doing, to them I have said 
                              G           C 
We're coal miners's children, begging for bread 

F                    C 
Only a miner, killed under the ground 
                              G 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
C                 F           C 
Only a miner, but one more is gone 
                          G         C 
Leaving his wife and four children alone 

C          
Their mining's all over 
     F         C 
Coal miner farewell
