-----------------------................
*from 'A Mighty Wind Original Soundtrack' (2003)*
Intro:
Dm
Verse 1:
Dm C C/B
It was April 27, in the year of 91,
Am Dm
Bout a mile below the surface and the warm Kentucky sun.
Dm C C/B
The late shift was ending, and the early shift was late,
Am Dm
The foreman ate his dinner, from a dirty tin plate.
Chorus 1:
Dm C C/B
Blood on the tracks, blood in the mine,
Am Dm
Brothers and sisters, what a terrible time.
C C/B
Ole 97 went in the wrong hole,
Am Dm
Now in mine number 60, there's blood on the coal,
C C/B Am
Blood on the coal, blood on the coal.
Verse 2:
Dm C C/B
Well, the slag pits were steamin', it was 7:25,
Am Dm
Every miner worked the coal face; every one of them alive.
Dm C C/B
The train came round the corner; you could hear the trestle groan,
Am Dm
But the switcher wasn't listnin', so he left the switch alone!
Chorus 2:
Dm C C/B
Blood on the tracks, blood in the mine,
Am Dm
Brothers and sisters, what a terrible time.
C C/B
Ole 97 went in the wrong hole,
Am Dm
Now in mine number 60, there's blood on the coal,
C C/B Am
Blood on the coal, blood on the coal.
Verse 3:
Dm C C/B
Well, the walls began to tremble and the men began to yell,
Am Dm
They could hear that lonesome whistle, like an echo out of...well.
Dm C C/B
They dropped their picks and shovels, as to safety they did run,
Am Dm
For to stay amongst the living, in the year of ninety-one.
Chorus 3:
Dm C C/B
Blood on the tracks, blood in the mine,
Am Dm
Brothers and sisters, what a terrible time.
C C/B
Ole 97 went in the wrong hole,
Am Dm
Now in mine number 60, there's blood on the coal,
C C/B Am
Blood on the coal, blood on the coal.
Verse 4:
Dm C C/B
Now, an Irishman named Murphy said; "I'll stop that iron horse!"
Am Dm
And he stood to athwart it's passage and it crushed him dead of course.
Dm C C/B
And I hope he hears the irony, when e're this tale is told,
Am Dm
The train that took his life was burning good Kentucky coal. (Hey!)
Chorus 4:
Dm C C/B
Blood on the tracks, blood in the mine,
Am Dm
Brothers and sisters, what a terrible time.
C C/B
Ole 97 went in the wrong hole,
Am Dm
Now in mine number 60, there's blood on the coal,
C Am, Dm
Blood on the coal, blood on the coal.
