(G)            D                   Em                     C 
 A lie to say "Oh, my mountain has coal veins and beds to dig 
G             D                 C                D 
 Five hundred men with axes and they all dig for me" 
(same chords) 
A lie to say "Oh, my river where many fish do swim 
Half of your catch is mine when you haul your nets in" 
 
 

       C               G              C          G        D 
 Oh no, never will he believe that his greed is a blinding ray 
C          G           C 
No devil or redeemer will cheat him 
 
 
 
    G                  Em    D    (First ending: C  D G) 
He'll take his gold to where he's lying cold      
A lie to say "Oh, my mine gave a diamond big as a fist" 
But for every gem in his pocket, the jewels he has missed 
A lie to say "Oh, my garden is growing taller by the day" 
He only eats the best and tosses the rest away 
 

        : End with 
        C    D           G 
         Six deep in the grave

            C                    Gmaj9   G/B  C             D     
       His oldest pain      and fear in life      There'll not be time 
                   (Something is out of reach, something he wanted) 
            C                    Gmaj9   G/B  C           D    
        His oldest pain      and fear in life    There'll not be time 
                   (Something is out of reach, he's being taunted) 
           C               Gmaj9  G/B       C        G               C 
        Oh no,                          hey hey, 
             (Something is out of reach,        that he can't beg or steal) 
        D          G (go right into verse) 
        Nor can he buy 
 
A lie to say "Oh, my forest has trees that block the sun 
And when I cut them down I don't answer to anyone" 
 
Chorus, then repeat Chorus chords with "La la la..." 
 
        Em      D       C       D      G 
ENDING: Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely man
