Land Of Green Coalminers Beat
[A]i was sitting in a station bar,
s[C]omewhere in a[G]merika [A]
w[A]hen an o[C]ld man came to m[G]e
h[A]e said: "can i sit next to you?",
and [C]i had nothing e[G]lse to do [A] C G
so he sat down and drank his beer
he t[A]old me 'bout the rocks and hills,
a[C]bout the autum a[G]nd its chill [A]
a[A]bout the v[C]alleys and the r[G]ain
a[A]nd then he spoke of former times,
a[C]bout his children a[G]nd his wife [A]
a[A]nd ab[C]out what yet rem[G]ained
s[F]uddenly he s[G]aid: "my son,
d[F]o you know the la[E]nd,
w[E]here i'[E]ve co[E]me fr[E]om
a[E]nd h[E]e as[E]ked
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts rough and s[F]tormy sea
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts wondrous s[F]cenery
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
m[A]any of us had left their homes,
n[C]ever felt the we[G]stwind blow aga[A]in
he s[C]aid with lonely e[G]yes
they o[A]nce had worked upon the land,
that n[C]ow is in some s[G]tranger's
hands [A]
he s[C]aid with angry e[G]yes
t[F]he more he spoke, t[G]he more he drank
t[F]he more he kept
on te[E]lling 'b[E]out h[E]is la[E]nd a[E]nd h[E]e
[said]
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts rough and s[F]tormy sea
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts wondrous s[F]cenery
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
even th[A]ough the bar was full of noise,
the m[C]an began to lo[G]wer his voice [A]
and stood [C]up without a w[G]ord
a[A]lthough it is five years ago i
s[C]wear
that i ex[G]actly know [A]
every w[C]ord that we had s[G]aid
I s[F]till can see his tr[G]embling hands,
a[F]s he told the s[E]tory 'b[E]out h[E]is la[E]nd
a[E]nd h[E]e s[E]aid
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts rough and s[F]tormy sea
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts wondrous s[F]cenery
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts rough and s[F]tormy sea
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
d[A]o you know the l[G]and of green,
i[E]ts wondrous s[F]cenery
d[A]o you know the i[G]sland of the [E]rai[FG]n
The L[F]and [G]of G[A]reeeeeeeen!
