                    "New York Mining Disaster 1941"
                       (Barry Gibb / Robin Gibb)

Intro:

	Am
	/ / / /  / / / /

Verse 1:

	        Am
	In the event of something happening to me
	                                            D 
	There is something I would like you all to see
	              G                       1: Am/D [xx0555]
	                                      3: Am   D
	It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

Chorus:

	          G       C         G
	Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
	        G               C          F
	Do you know what it's like on the outside
	         (F)                               E
	Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide
	     Am
	Mr. Jones

Verse 2:

	I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
	Maybe someone is digging underground
	              G                            Am
	Or have they given up and all gone home to bed
	          D                              G     F
	Thinking those who once existed must be dead

[repeat chorus]

[repeat verse 1]

[repeat chorus]

Coda:

	      Am  /G  /F  /E  Am/D
	(Mr. Jones)


OK, if you want all of these to sound exact you'll have to tune to open D
(low to high: D A D F# A D) like Barry Gibb; the chord fingerings in that
tuning are:

	Am	x07677
	Am/D	000677
	C	575675 [Barry barres at 10th fret]
	D	000000
	E	222222
	F	333333
	G	555555
