Intro: [Am - C - Em - Am] x2
Verse 1:
Am C G
We get the rocks in the box, get the water right down to your socks
Em Am
This bulkheads built of fallen brethren bones
Am C G
We all do what we can, we endure our fellow man
Em Am
And we sing our songs to the headframes, creeps and bones

And you won't make it time on this gray ground of mountain mine
Of dirt your made and of dirt you will return
So while were living here, let's get this other one thing clear
There's plenty of men to die, you don't jump your turn
