Springhill Mining Disaster

       Em      A          Em    D
In the town of Springhill, Nova Scotia
Em          G           A          B
Down in the dark of the Cumberland mine
        Em           A             D      G
There's blood on the coal, and the miners lie
Em            A         Em     Bsus B Badd9
In roads that never saw sun or sky

[Verse 2]
       Em      A                Em          D
In the town of Springhill, they don't sleep easy
Em        G          A           B
Often the earth will tremble and roll
         Em       A         D      G
When the earth is restless, miners die
Em       A            D        G
Bone and blood is the price of coal
Em       A            Em      Bsus B Badd9
Bone and blood is the price of coal

[Verse 3]
Em            A             Em          D
Listen to the shouts of the black faced miner
Em            G           A      B
Listen to the call of the rescue team
   Em      A      D        G
We have no water, light or bread
         Em        A         D         G
So we're living on songs and hope instead
Em        A         Em      Bsus B Badd9
Living on songs and hope instead
