Johnny Miner, you were born

Farewell Johnny Miner

D
They've promised you the earth 
sometimes
G                      D
To get coal from their stinkin' 
mines
G               Bm
Now the justice for their crimes
   D         G      A
Is Farewell, Johnny Miner!

Chorus

D
You've battled with the sliding 
scale
G                    D
Lungs turned black & faces pale
G                      Bm
Now your body's up for sale
D        G      A
Farewell Johnny Miner!

Chorus

D
And Farewell John, don't take it 
hard
G                  D
Unemployment isn't bad
G                           
They'll treat you well in the 
  Bm
knackers' yard
D        G      A
Farewell Johnny Miner!
