In the [Am]town of [D]Springhill,[Am]  Nova [G]Scotia
[Am]Down in the [C]dark of the [D]Cumberland [C]mine
There's [Am]blood on the [D]coal and the [C]miners [Am]lie
In [Am]roads that [D]never saw [Am]sun nor [G]sky,
[Am]Roads that [D]never saw [Am]sun nor [G]sky
[Am-D-Am-G]          [Am-D-Am-G]          In the town of Springhill, don't sleep easy
Often the earth will tremble and roar
But when the earth is restless miners die
Bone and blood is the price of coal,
Bone and blood is the price of coal
Listen to the shouts of the black faced miners
Listen to the call of the rescue team
We have no water, light or bread
So we're livin' on songs and hope instead,
Livin' on songs and hope instead
In the town of Springhill, Nova Scotia
Down in the dark of the Cumberland mine
There's blood on the coal and the miners lie
In roads that never saw sun nor sky,
Roads that never saw sun nor sky
In the town of Springhill, don't sleep easy
Often the earth will tremble and roar
But when the earth is restless miners die
Bone and blood is the price of coal,
Bone and blood is the price of coal,
Bone and blood is the price of coal
Outro:
Am-Dm-Am-Dm (same as intro)
