From The Diary Of A Northumberland Miner
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:1st fret
[Verse 1]
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
I’ve seen hardship, I’ve felt pain
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
I’ve seen mothers nurse their children in the rain
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
I’ve seen families lose their homes
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
Living in fields and doing all the things they’d never known
[Chorus]
G C D
Will we ever get back to the way we were?
G C D(add9)/F#
Will I ever get back to the way I was before?
G D(add9)/F#
Here I am, I’m lying on the ground
Em7
They kick me when I’m down
D(add9)/F# C
Where do I begin?
G D(add9)/F# C G
I had many dreams, not by any means will I give in.
[Verse 2]
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
Winter’s breaking, snows are due
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
A certain mister Londonderry’s always in the news
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
He called the soldiers, they stemmed the flow
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
The streams run dry and the children cry, there’s nowhere left to go.
[Chorus]
G C D
Will we ever get back to the way we were?
G C D(add9)/F#
Will I ever get back to the way I was before?
G D(add9)/F#
Here I am, I’m lying on the ground
Em7
They kick me when I’m down
D(add9)/F# C
Where do I begin?
G D(add9)/F# C G
I had many dreams, not by any means will I give in.
[Verse 3]
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
I like fishing, when there’s time
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
If I ever get the chance to throw my line
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
The cold is biting, oh how it hurts
G D(add9)/F# C D(add9)/F#
Along with underhanded ways to drive us back to work
[Chorus]
G C D
Will we ever get back to the way we were?
G C D(add9)/F#
Will I ever get back to the way I was before?
G D(add9)/F#
Here I am, I’m lying on the ground
Em7
They kick me when I’m down
D(add9)/F# C
Where do I begin?
G D(add9)/F# C G
I had many dreams, not by any means will I give in.
