Am D7/F# G Am D7/F# G All my life I've been digging Polish black coal Am D7/F# G Am D7/F# G It wasn't much but you know I could play that role Am Am/G D7/F# Dm E7 They laid me off and so I kept my pail Am D7/F# G Am D7/F# G E7 And now I wade in bushes down by the rail Chorus: Am F E7 D7 Raider man, got no choice about it Am F E7 D7 Raider man, jumpin' up there on it Am F E7 D7 Am E7 Raider man, gonna' take a little bit now They hired me back and traded my pail for a stick And now I chase the ones with a pail and a brick Chorus - x2 I chased my cousin, it wasn't no big deal I lost my legs when I slipped beneath the coal train wheel My cousin tries to put something in my bowl And now I wish I never left that darkened hole Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre
