[Intro]
Am Am Am Am x2
Am C Dm F
Am C Dm Am Am

[Verse 1]
Am C Dm F
In Johnson county holler where the minin' comp'ny bloomed
Am C Dm F
He lived in a house with all five brothers, his dearest sisters too
Am C Dm F
The summer heat was as bad as the mud that the humid air did brew
Am C Dm
In the winter the snow just blowed on in through holes in the wall you could
F
throw a dog through
Am C Dm Am Am

[Verse 2]
Am C Dm F
As an able-bodied boy he lied about his age
Am C Dm F
To help his father break away from the rattle of a poor man's ball and chain
Am C Dm F
They made him shoot their coal and he was grateful at the time
Am C Dm F Am
There was many a boy that'd done the same and they'd never come out alive
Am

[Chorus]
Am C
Better run coalshooter run
Dm F
Run away as fast as you can
Am C Dm F
And when you get to the end of the tunnel just keep on runnin' my friend
Am C Dm F
Cause this ain't no kind of life that a young man should live
Am C Dm F
If you can run faster than gunpowder burns you might see the light again
Am

[Verse 3]
