It's a Working Man I am, and I've been down under - ground, and 
                                   A  Asus4  A 
I swear to God, if I ever see the sun,

verse 2 

      D                             G                D 
At the age of sixteen years, oh he quarrels with his peers, 
                                    A  Asus4  A 
Who vowed they'd never see another one, 
         D                                G                D 
In the dark recess of the mine, Where you age before your time, and 
     D               A             D   Dsus4   D 
The coal dust lies heavy on your lungs.
