[Verse 1]
                G
This nine pound hammer
                C7
Is a little too heavy
             G         D7
Buddy for my size size size

Buddy for my size
                    G
So I'm going on the mountain

Just to see my baby

No I ain't coming back

Roll on buddy

Well, tell me how can I roll roll roll
                      G
When the wheels won't go

Roll on buddy
                 C7
Pull you load of coal
                  G    D7

When the wheels won't roll

                   C7
It's a long way to Hazard
                     G         D7
Just to get a little brew brew brew
                     G
Just to get a little brew
           G
And when I die
                C7  
You can make my tombstone

Out of number nine coal

Out of number nine coal
