D Dsus4 She was always a very pretty lady D Dsus4 He had always caught her eye D They were married in a mining valley Bm G D And swore they'd be together 'til the day that they diedVerse 2:
D Twenty years later with the coal all gone Dsus4 D Dsus4 And the golden lamp in his hand D He stands at the bar with a pint and his friends Bm G D They all agree together that they don't understandPre-Chorus
Bm D G Meanwhile little David takes his books off to school D C And learns of times gone past Bm D G And when it comes to questions he puts up his hand D C There's something that he just wants to askD Dsus4 DD Dsus4 Please sir can you give me and answer D Dsus4 Please sir you know it doesn't seem fair D Dsus4 Last night as I walked through the door Bm G D I thought I saw my father crying sat in his chairVerse 3:
D Dsus4 She stood there with her arms around him and she said D Dsus4 She promised him a better day D But after twenty years of working underground Bm G D It's not just your job that they take awayPre-Chorus
Bm D G Sometimes he'd walk to the edge of his world D C And stare at the valley below Bm D G He thought about leaving maybe running away D C But knew there was nowhere to goD Dsus4 D D Dsus4 D Bm G DD Dsus4 Please sir can you give me and answer D Dsus4 Please sir you know I just can't see D Dsus4 Please sir when you make these decisions Bm G D Do you have a vision of what happens to me D Dsus4 Please sir can you give me and answer D Dsus4 Please sir you know I just can't say D Dsus4 Please sir when you make these decisions Bm G D Do you have a vision of what happens to meVerse 4:
D Dsus4 Life goes on in a mining valley D Dsus4 But the young men leave for a better wage D And every day he coughs and he splutters Bm G D He knows that love is the reason he stays Bm G D He knows that love is the reason he staysPre-Chorus
