[Verse 1]
Cm                   Cm
 In a mining town in West Virginia
Cm              D#  F
 In the year of 1910
Cm                   Cm
 The boys cut at the heart of the mountain
Cm                       D#        F
 They been cuttin' since God knows when
F
 But today's just a little bit different
F                       D#        Cm    Cm
 Something down there's out of control
Cm
Somebody yells...


[Chorus]
Cm   A#     G#    D#  A#  F
Fire in the hole         (fire)
                              G#    D#  A#  F
Somebody yellin', fire in the hole         (fire)
                              G#    D#  A#  F
Somebody yellin', fire in the hole         (fire)

Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

[Verse 2]
Cm                   Cm
 And the word spread through the mountain
Cm                  D#       F
 The heads turn and children cry
Cm                  Cm
 Black smoke porin' out of eleven
Cm             D#        F
 Take over the coal town sky
F
 And the company men are runnin'
F                               D#        Cm    Cm
 And the screams they make your blood run cold
            Cm
They run so cold...


[Chorus]
Cm   A#     G#    D#  A#  F
Fire in the hole         (fire)
                              G#    D#  A#  F
Somebody yellin', fire in the hole         (fire)
                              G#    D#  A#  F
Somebody yellin', fire in the hole         (fire)

Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

 In a mining town in West Virginia
Cm              D#  F
 In the year of 1910

 Eighty-seven men went down

Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole
