/ F /
It's a / Workin' Man I / am, and
/ Bb / F
I've / been down under - / ground, and

I / swear to God,
/ F / C /
If I / ever see the / sun, /
/ F /
Or for / any length of / time,
/ Bb / F
I can / hold it in my / mind,
/ F /C / F /
I / never again will / go down under - / ground. /

/ F /
At the / age of sixteen / years,
/ Bb / F
Oh he / quarrels with his / peers,
/ F / / C /
Who / vowed they'd never / see another / one, /
/ F /
In the / dark recess of the / mine,
/ Bb / F
Where you / age before your / time, and
/ F / C / F /
The / coal dust lies / heavy on your / lungs. /

Chorus:

/ F /
At the / age of sixty- / four,

Old will / greet you at the / door, and

He'll / gently lead you by the / arm, /
/ F /
Through the / dark recess of the / mine,
/ Bb / F
Old will / take you back in / time, and
/ F / C / F /
He'll / tell you of the / hardships that were / had. /
