My brother was a Springfield Mountain coal miner 
                            C             D 
He had three young children and a darling wife 
    C                                    G 
But last night there was a rumble on the mountain 
                        D                 Em    C 
Shaft number three came down and took his life 
      G                 D                 G 
Shaft number three came down and took his life 


              C                 G 
Thirty miners died down in that cave-in 
                     C                  D 
Thirteen times we've brought the wagons down 
        C                                     G 
There's twenty graves we'll be digging in the churchyard 
                D              Em     C 
Ten more in the mountains underground 
G               D              G       G7 
Ten more in the mountains underground 


Chorus: 
    C         G        D                      G 
Lay down dear brother, Daddy's gonna take you home 
C               G           D 
Mamma's right behind you to take you home 
                    Em     C  G  D  G 
Where the cold wind blows

                    C            G 
And my sister was a coal miner's daughter 
               C            D 
My daddy was a coal miner's son 
   C                               G 
My family's lived and died on this mountain 
                             D              Em    C 
Down in the ground where the sun don't ever come 
     G                       D              G 
Down in the ground where the sun don't ever come 


                      C             G 
One more year I'll be ready for the coal mine 
                  C             D 
One more year and I'll be going down 
    C                               G 
But every night when I pass by that mountain 
                D            Em     C 
I cry to see my brother underground 
       G             D            G       
Yes, I cry to see my brother underground 


Chorus: 
    C         G        D                      G 
Lay down dear brother, Daddy's gonna take you home 
C               G           D 
Mamma's right behind you to take you home 
                    Em    C 
Where the cold wind blows 


Chorus: 
    G                  D                      G 
Lay down dear brother, Daddy's gonna take you home 
C               G           D 
Mamma's right behind you to take you home 
                    Em     C   
Where the cold wind blows 
            G              D  
She's gonna take you home 
                    G 
Where the cold wind blows
