        Am                       C                        G
Get the rox in the box, get the water right down to your socks
Em                                          Am
This bulkhead's built of fallen brethren bones
        Am                    C             G
We all do what we can, we endure our fellow man
Em                                                  Am
And we sing our songs to the head frames creaks and moans

        Fmaj7                   C
And it's one, two, three on the wrong side of the lee
              G                        Am
What were you meant for? What were you meant for?
         Fmaj7                            C
And it's seven, eight, nine, you get your shuffle back in line
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again

          Am                 C                          G
And you won't make a dime on this gray Granite Mountain Mine
Em                                           Am
Of dirt you're made and to dirt you will return
             Am                   C                         G
So while we're living here, let's get this little one thing clear
Em                                                Am
There's plenty of men to die, you don't jump your turn

        Fmaj7                   C
And it's one, two, three on the wrong side of the lee
              G                        Am
What were you meant for? What were you meant for?
         Fmaj7                            C
And it's seven, eight, nine, you get your shuffle back in line
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again

        Fmaj7                   C
And it's one, two, three on the wrong side of the lee
              G                        Am
What were you meant for? What were you meant for?
         Fmaj7                            C
And it's seven, eight, nine, you get your shuffle back in line
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
    G                     G/Ab                     Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
