Key : Em
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
Em | Em | Em/A | Em 

[Pre-Verse]
---------------------
Em | Em | Em/A | Em | Em 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em Em/A Em     Em
          Uh, well basically we are all alone at the centre of a pickaxe mine
Em Em/A Em Em
               Black lung stings as the pickaxe swings
                                  Em Em/A Em    Em
And the void of the mine closes in              The Devil came and the angels sang

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
                          Em Em/A Em
The song of the Holy Ghost
Em
Tempted the soul from the pennies to the gold
Like the dust I spit from my mouth
Em | Em/A | Em 

[Interlude]
---------------------
Em                          Em Em/A Em
Whoaoaohohohoa, whoaohohohoa
Em                          Em Em/A Em
Whoaoaohohohoa, whoaohohohoa

[Verse 2]
---------------------
  Em
Remember the night with the barroom fight
                                     Em Em/A Em   Em
Where I killed all of my best friends              We gambled it away with the whiskey 
open keg
                         Em Em/A Em      Em
And we never saw it again              Well, I had a wife that I met back in high 
school

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                         Em Em/A Em
And her name was LylaJean
   Em
We saved away to escape some place
On a local miner's minor pay
Em | Em/A | Em 



[Solo]
---------------------
Em | Em | Em/A | Em | Em 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Em Em/A Em   Em
              We saved so long the fall that came and gone
At least twenty seven times
Em Em/A Em Em
               It fell through the floorboards into deep dark darkness
                         Em Em/A Em   Em
And we never saw it again              So West Virginia's home and that's where we're 
staying

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
To the blade of the Bible hymn
Em Em/A Em Em
               Jesus says we're wicked so we just keep on pickin'
At the scab of the open mine



[Outro]
---------------------
Em                          Em Em/A Em
Whoaoaohohohoa, whoaohohohoa
Em
Whoaoaohohohoa, whoaohohohoa
