     D                                               D7
    Some blues are just blues, mine are the miner's blues,
      G                                                D
     some blues are just blues, mine are the miner's blues.
          A                      A7          D
    My troubles are coming by threes and by twos.
      D                                         D7
    Blues and more blues, it's the coal black blues,
      G                                         D
    blues and more blues, it's the coal black blues.
         A                    A7          D
    Got coal in my hair, got coal in my shoes.
      D                                               D7
    These blues are so blue, they are the coal black blues,
      G                                                D
    these blues are so blue, they are the coal black blues.
             A                        A7          D
    For my place will cave in, and my life I will lose.
     D                                         D7
    You say they are blues, these old miner's blues,
     G                                          D
    you say they are blues, these old miner's blues.
           A                        A7           D
    Now I must have sharpened these picks that I use.
         D                                      D7
    I'm out with these blues, dirty coal black blues,
         G                                       D
    I'm out with these blues, dirty coal black blues.
           A                         A7            D
    We'll lay off tomorrow with the coal miner's blues.
