D G D A

Sweet Guinevere you're off to the coal town tonight

G D A

And your young brother Ernie's up in Pittsburgh PA

D G D A

You know mother loves you, and dad's in the mine

G A D

So don't go to the coal town, Guinevere, if you're kind

D G D A

She loves a young man and he lives in the town

G D G A

And he leaves the house early for he works underground

D G D A

He makes a good wage for a coal miners son

G A D

And shes a bit pretty, just turned twenty-one

D G D A

Sweet Guinevere you're off to the coal town tonight

G D A

And your young brother Ernie's up in Pittsburgh PA

D G D A

You know mother loves you, and dad's in the mine

G A D

So don't go to the coal town, Guinevere, shut the blind

D G D A

She knows her good mother's not feelin no pain

G D A

She remembers an explosion and the black falling rain

D G D A

She paints her thin lips in her dewy-eyed way

G A D

Then she says to the daughter, dear daughter I pray

D G D A

Sweet Guinevere you're off to the coal town tonight

G D A

And your young brother Ernie's up in Pittsburgh PA

D G D A

You know mother loves you, and dad's in the mine

G A D

So don't go to the coal town, Guinevere, if you're kind
