Leaving my family behind me

not knowing what lay ahead

waving goodbye, as I left them in tears
Bm C
remembering all we'd said
C D/C
I looked to the sky, I offered my prayers
Bm C
I asked Him for guidance and strength
G D/F# Em D/D
but the simple beliefs of a simple man
Bm D
lay in His hands, and on my head

we sweat and we toiled

good men lost their lives

I don't think they knew what for

I sold them my heart

I gave everything I had

my dignity fought back,

[Em]
We worked in gangs for all we were worth
the young boys pulling the wagons
we were digging the tunnel, shifting the earth
it was then that it happened.
[A]
No-one knew how the cracks appeared
but as it fell they all disappeared
stone fell like rain

Verse
-----
The smoke cleared, the dust it settled
No one knew how many had died
all around there were broken men
they'd said it was safe, they'd lied
you could hear the cries, you could smell the fear
but good fortune that day was mine
and it occurred to me the heart of a good man
it seems is hard to find.
Chorus
------
E
can you hear me
can you see
G
Don't you hear me
A
don't you see

the devil for our pay
through the wind, through the snow,

We came from the North,
C G
and we came from the South

with picks and with spades

and a new kind of order

showing no fear of what lies up ahead

They'll never see the likes of us again
