G G C D Come listen you fellers so young and fine Em G C G Oh seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine G C D It will form as a habit and seep in your soul Em G C G Till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal. [Chorus] D C G It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew D C G Where danger is double and pleasures are few G C D Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines. [Verse 2] G C D It's many a man I've known in my day Em G C G Who lived just to labor his young life away G C D Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard his wine Em G C G A man will have lust for the lure of the mine. [Chorus] D C G It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew D C G Where danger is double and pleasures are few G C D Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines. [Verse 3] G C D The midnight, the morning, or the middle of the day Em G C G It's the same to the miner who labors away G C D Where the demons of the death often come by surprise Em G C G One fall of the slate and you're buried alive. [Chorus] D C G It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew D C G Where danger is double and pleasures are few G C D Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines. [Verse 4] G C D I hope when I'm gone and the ages shall roll Em G C G My body will blacken and turn into coal G C D Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home Em G C G And pity the miner a-diggin' my bones. [Chorus] D C G It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew D C G Where danger is double and pleasures are few G C D Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines. [Outro] Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines. Em G C G It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines.
