Dark As A Dungeon Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

Capo 2nd

[INTRO]

| [D] | [D] | [G] | [D] |

[D]Oh, come all you young fellers, young and so fine[G] . [A7]
[D]Seek not your fortune in the dark, dreary m[G]ine. [D]
It'll form as a habit and seep in you[G]r soul, [A7]
Till the stre[D]am of you blood runs as black as the coal.[G] [D]

Where it's dark as[A7] a dungeon, damp as the dew[G] , [D]
[A7]danger is double; pleasur[G]es are few. [D]
Where the rain never falls, the sun never shines[G] , [A7]
It's d[D]ark as a dungeon way down in the mi[G]ne. [D]

[INTERLUDE]

| [D] | [D] | [G] | [D] | [D] |

[D]Well, I pray when I'm dead and the ages shall roll, [G] [A7]
that my body [D]will blacken and turn into coal. [G] [D]
Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home [G] [A7]
and pit[D]y the miner diggin' m[G]y bones. [D]

Where it's dark as[A7] a dungeon, damp as the dew[G] , [D]
[A7]danger is double; pleasur[G]es are few. [D]
Where the rain never falls, the sun never shines[G] , [A7]
It's d[D]ark as a dungeon way down in the mi[G]ne. [D]
