Verse 1
Am
And
G
Am
here I sit with a tear in my eye
G
Am
between you and I
G
Am
And here I sit with a tear in my eye
G
Am
between you and I
Em
Am
As a child I dreamed of her
G
Am
On the far banks of the river
Em
Am
I knew she could not be reached,
Em
Am
for my mind was forever wondering,
G
Am
far above his head,
G
Am
as he tried his best to teach me.
Em
Am
The river was muddy and black,
G
Am
black as the coal she carried,
Em
Am
impossible to cross.
Em
Am
Many men had tried,
G
Am
the old sailor told me
Em
Am
Another life is lost
G
Am
And here I sit with a tear in my eye
G
Am
in between you and I
G
Am
And here I sit with a tear in my eye
G
Am
between you and I
Black was the color of
my childish dreams
Em
Am
Impressions that would last
Em
Black coal, coal black,
G
Am
pit yackers face
Em
Am
Escaping the coal dust blast
G
Am
Blind ponies stumble into the light of day
Em
Am
To retire in the green fields forever
Em
Am
And I'll build me a bridge of steel
G
Am
To beat the black river forever
G
Am
I'll beat that black river forever
G
Am
I'll beat that muddy river forever
G
Am
And here I sit with a tear in my eye
G
Am
between you and I
G
Am
And here I sit with a tear in my eye
C
The waters of time in between you
G
Am
G
and I
C
Em
G
I don't know why you geezers come down to London,
Am
you know,
G
because you look so miserable all
the time.
Am
That's true.
I haven't been too happy,
but what brought us down here
G
was three years on the door.
I just come down here for
G
and get a few more quid in me pocket.
Yeah, but going down in the smoke,
mate, you need people to see,
G
you need friends to go and see you,
because it's an old town, boy,
down here.
G
Oh, I'm learning that already, you know.
I'm trying to get the mix of
people, you know.
G
I want to meet the right people,
Em
Am
like, you know.
G
But, no, it's happened yet, like,
Am
so I'm f***ed off, you know, really.
C
If you hang about with me, mate,
you know,
G
I can show you some places,
meet some good people, you
know.
Em
Oh, good people I've met, what?
Em
In Wall Street there's darkies,
there's Egyptians, there's Arabs,
there's all sorts of living.
Well, mate, I live and work, you know,
with Irishmen, Jews, darkies,
And after a while,
you know, you put up with it,
and it doesn't seem so hard to get along with,
you know.
only black people we see at work is a fella when he comes out the pit,
Am
you know,
and he can wash that off, you know.
I mean,
that's... I know, the same one...
It's and bad in all
sorts, though, mate.
You've just got to, you know,
get on with it.
Well, I tell
you what, if it doesn't get better
and the money is just not doing us any good at all,
cos it's more expensive,
I'm seriously considering, like I say,
Em
I'm going to f**k a lot of them
and just f**k off back here.
Cos that's another thing,
there's no bars, not good ones.
Am
G
You know, where you can have a good
entertainment.
G
Well, it's more of a social thing down here,
Am
mate, you know.
C
G
You just, you know, you go out
with a good time in a bar.
Yeah, but... You know, and you
eat.
Well, you know,
I reckon a woman
shouldn't be seen in a bar.
You shouldn't take her in.
She should stop with you.
Yeah,
but you've got to go out
with respectable bars,
mate. know, there's
some nice, respectable bars.
Not too classy,
no, not too down and out,
but just nice.
Yeah, but when they got in,
You don't know if it's a bar or
restaurant.
If I'm going to get drunk,
I don't want to get drunk
in a cake shop.
Em
Am
over the place.
Am
Thank you very much.
Chance that'll be four and
seven quid.
