C Am C

From Morenci, Arizona where the copper mines glow

C Am C

I could see Clifton in the canyon below

C Am C

In Clifton lived Rosey, we danced and we dined

C G C

On the money I made in the open pit mine.

C Am C

I loved my sweet Rosey and she loved me too

C Am C

There was nothin' for Rosey that I wouldn't do

C Am C

Her hugs and her kisses they were something devine

C G C

Gave me reason for working the open pit mine.

C Am C

While I was out walkin' with my Rosey one day

C Am C

We passed a store window with rings on display

C Am C

I bought those she wanted, how they really did shine

C G C

With the money I scraped from that open pit mine.

C Am C

Her love would bring heartbreak that I would soon learn

C Am C

'Cause she would concern me when my back was turned?

C Am C

Rosey would go dancin' and drink the red wine

C G C

While I worked like a slave in that open pit mine.

C Am C

One night I caught Rosey on her rendevous

C Am C

She was huggin' and kissin' with somebody new

C Am C

It was there that I shot 'em while their arms were entwined

C G C

Then I buried her deep in that open pit mine.
