[Verse 1]
Am C G
We get the rocks in the box, get the water right down to your socks
Em Am
This bulkheads built of fallen brethren bones
Am C G
We all do what we can, we endure our fellow man
Em Am
And we sing our songs to the headframes' creaks and moans
[Chorus 1]
F C
And it's one, two, three, on the wrong side of the lee
G Am
What were you meant for, what were you meant for
F C
And its seven, eight, nine, you get your shovel back in line
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
[Interlude]
Am - C - Em - Am

[Verse 2]
Am C G
And you won't make a dime on this gray granite mountain mine
Em Am
Of dirt your made and to dirt you will return
Am C G
So while were living here, let's get this other one thing clear
Em Am
There's plenty of men to die, don't jump your turn
[Chorus 2]
F C
And it's one, two, three, on the wrong side of the lee
G Am
What were you meant for, what were you meant for
F C
And its seven, eight, nine, you get your shovel back in line
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
[Interlude]
Am C Em Am

[Chorus 3]
F C
And it's one, two, three, of the wrong side of the lee
G Am
What were you meant for, whatever your meant for
F C
And its seven, eight, nine, you get your shovel back in line
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
G G/G# Am
And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
