By Steep Canyon Rangers 


     Capo 4

          C       Cmaj9           Am

          C            Cmaj9               Am
    He can dig his own coal somthing esle is happening 
         C              Cmaj9          Am
   This living that im making is doing us in
         G
   Hes broken the lives of too many good men 

   Been hauling coal since i was big enough to fight 

  Some 30 odd shift with out a glimpse of daylight 

   The corporation likes to say that everythings alright 

   Dig your self a hole    get outa sight 

   Theres a dark cloud above me thats blocking out the sun 

   Burn another hundred coal listen to the engines run 

   1 half is starving while the others having fun 

 So call the captain, call the captain, call the captain, call the captiannn

  (chorus) 
         Am      G 
        Melinda close the door
                                  C    Am
        I aint going down to the mines today 
                            C        G
        I want' clear blue skys and whole lot more 
                                 Am 
        I aint going down to the mines 

  (verse) 
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/steep-canyon-rangers/223187.html ]
              C          Cmaj9              Am 
    Theres a hole in this bucket ive been carrying around 
              C       Cmaj9              Am
    I fill it up to the top and watch it spill on the ground 
        C            Cmaj9             Am 
    I go down to the mines and when i come back up 
        G
    I got nothin to show but the sweat on my brow 

    These hills are my own flesh and bones 

    There all that i love and there all that i know

    Please dont ask me to destroy my own home

    I'm not gonna choose between my heart and soul, soo

    Call the Captain tell him i aint coming in 

    He can dig his own coal something else is happening 

    This living that making is doing us in 

    So call the captain, call the captain,.......call the captainnn
