Verse 1:

Am
There's a deep dark hole in the mountain

                               D
Where the devil sleeps all the time

Am                         D
Guarding his gold from the boys, young and old

Am               G          Am
From the men who worked the mine

Am               G          Am
From the men who worked the mine

Verse 2:
There's a deep dark hole in the mountain
Where we'd shovel and pick everyday
Stealin' his gold, yeah, the boys, young and old
They're gone but not far away
They're gone but not far away

chorus:

D                        Am
Oh, devil's dream in the mountain

D                      Am
Haulin' it down to the mill

D              Am
Day after day, drawin' our pay

Am               G           Am
From a deep dark hole in the hill

Am               G           Am
From a deep dark hole in the hill

That last shot was a bum

Am                        D
Let's muck her out, boys, load'er up

Am              G       Am
And blow her to kingdom come

Am                G       Am
We'll blow her to kingdom come
