Chorus:
It’s a [A] working man l am
And I’ve [D] been down under [A] ground
And I swear to God if ever see the [E7] sun
Or for [A] any length of time
I can [D] hold it in my [A] mind
I never again will [E7] go down under [A] ground
At the [A] age of sixteen years
Oh he [D] quarrels with his [A] peers
Who vowed they’d never see another [E7] one

Where you [D] age before your [A] time
And the coal dust lies [E7] heavy on your [A] lungs

Oh he'll [D] greet you at the [A] door
And he'll gently lead you by the [E7] arm
Through the [A] dark recess of the mines
Oh he'll [D] take you back in [A] time
And he'll tell you of the [E7] hardships that were [A] had
Chorus
I never again will [E7] go down under [A] ground
God I [A] never again will [E7] go down under [D] grou...[A].nd
