                    WEST VIRGINIA COAL
                       AMANDA COOK


CAPO: 4th FRET

 Daddy worked the coal mines until the day he died
     D                            C
And every day he would make what troubled momma's mind
 Em                      G
Numbers were rising the shafts were falling in
    D                                  C         C
We prayed to God that we would see my daddy again

 Em                           G
Winter came to Krueger's and shut down for repair
           D                                    C
While the suit and ties that owned us wouldn't stop the mine affairs
      Em                             G
They promised the return of all the work the best they could
      D                            C                   C
On a foggy mountain morning daddy went to work for good


CHORUS:
            D                              Em
Place your hands in black dust was all he knew
       C                    G                                      G
As he shoveled scraped the coal he made and the paycheck he was due
   C              D         G             Em
A dollar for the company a penny for his time
       C                D               Em
As he worked his life away down in the mines


INSTRUMENTAL:

VERSE:
 Em                              G
Covered in his coat of coal his skin black as night
       D                      C
Not enough air to breathe a struggle for his life
           Em                             G
It's been seven lonely years since we've heard that whistle blow
         D                           C                C
Waiting for my pa to dig out all of West Virginia coal

     Em                            G
The people of the town all moved away to better things
     D                             C
But momma kept our family here to chase for daddy's dream
 Em                                 G
Now we stand around his grave with just an empty hope
      D                                   C                C
Just like the miner buried here in these West Virginia coal


CHORUS:
            D                              Em
Place your hands in black dust was all he knew
       C                    G                                      G
As he shoveled scraped the coal he made and the paycheck he was due
       C              D         G             Em
And a dollar for the company a penny for his time
       C                D               Em
As he worked his life away down in the mines
