[INTRO]
[F#m] [E] [D] [A] [F#m] [E] [D] [D]
[VERSE 1]
[F#m]I was all of [E]17 when you [D]moved from Monte[A]rey
And [F#m]I’d never known [E]loving quite that [D]way [D]
In the [F#m]throws of youthful [E]bravado we had [D]nothing else but [A]time
And I [F#m]swore I’d never [E]take that job [D]working down the [D]mine
[CHORUS]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [A]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
[VERSE 2]
You weren't [F#m]fooled by dreams of [E]money or a [D]young boy's quest for [A]fame
It was [F#m]something else that [E]made you take my [D]name [D]
We were [F#m]of a time when [E]people lived ac[D]cording to the [A]Lord
And a [F#m]girl in your con[E]dition had to [D]fall upon her [D]sword
[CHORUS]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
[VERSE 3]
Now the [F#m]winters here are [E]brutal and the [D]wind it chills your [A]bones
And the [F#m]dampness [E]never leaves your [D]clothes [D]
The [F#m]years have done their [E]damage and the [D]whiskey’s played its [A]part
As the [F#m]calluses u[E]pon my hands [D]moved towards my [D]heart
[CHORUS]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
[VERSE 4]
The [F#m]mines are all a-[E]closing and there's [D]no work to be [A]found
Our [F#m]faces match the [E]thunder brewing [D]on the edge of [D]town
And the [F#m]litany of [E]promises that [D]disappeared like [A]ice
[F#m]Left us like a [E]gambler shooting [D]craps with loaded [D]dice
[CHORUS]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]
We keep [F#m]fa – [E]al - [D]ling [D]

[VERSE 5]
Now you're [F#m]sitting here and [E]dreaming bout the [D]bluffs of Monte[A]rey
It was [F#m]never all that [E]warm there any[D]way [D]
And [F#m]all the things we [E]should have said so [D]many years be[A]fore
Are [F#m]flaking like the de[E]caying paint u[D]pon the kitchen [D]door
[OUTRO]
The kitchen [F#m]do – [E]o - [D]or, [D] kitchen [F#m]do – [E]o - [D]or [D]
