Tramp Miner

C F C F C G C G

[Verse]
   C                       Am
I am a tramp miner, I've been for some time now
    C           Em           Am
I live without light of the day
         C           Em           F             Am
In the black underground that's where I'll be found
 C         G    F       C           G     C  F  C  G
Biding my time away, Oh working my life away

[Verse]
       C                         Am
From here out to Timmins, I've loved all your women
         C        Em           Am
In the taverns I drank down my pay
        C       Em         F            Am
But I'd do it again even though it's a sin
          C           G           F
For it's better than driving the raise
           C             G           C  F C G
If you've done it you'd know what I say

[Chorus]
         C
So I'll roll, roll with the wind
  F                  C
Roll, roll with the wind
  C    Em            Am           F
Roll, roll with the time and the wind
            C          G           C  F C G
Then I'll find my way back home again

[Bridge]
 Bb
Homesickness, heartbreak
                                    C
And black lung among these men run rampant
          Bb
As there rockin' and rollin'
                            G   C F C G C F C G
High ballin' this country today

[Outro]
      C                       Am
I've been a tramp miner, for such a long time now
    C           Em           Am
I live without light of the day
      C            Em              F       Am
In a hole in the ground, they'll lower me down
 C         G         F        C          F     C  F C G
That'll be my final pay, for working my life away
