Chord/Tab song: Coal Tattoo

Billy Edd Wheeler Writer Kathy Mattea
[Am]Travelin on down the c[F]oal town road
Well somebody said thats a strange tattoo
Someday when Im dead and gone

[G]Listenin to my rubber tire[Am]s whine
You have on the side of your head
To heaven the land of my dreams

[Am]Goodbye to Buckeye, W[F]hite Sycamore
I said, thats a blue mark left by the coal
I wont have to worry about losing my job

[G]I leaving you beh[Am]ind
Little more and Id been dead.
To bad time and big machines

[F]Oh, Ive been a coal miner [G]all my life
I love the rumble, I love the dark
Oh! I got no house Lord I got no job

[F]Laying down track in a[G] hole
Lord, I love the cool of the slate
Just got a worried soul

[Am]Got a back like ironwood, bent by the[F] wind
But its going down that new road lookin for a job
And a blue tattoo on the side of my head

[G]Blood veins as bl[Am]ue as the coal
Travelin and lookin I hate
Left by that number 9 coal
[G]Blood veins as b[Am]lue as the coal
Travelin and lookin I hate
Left by that number 9 coal
Left by that number 9 coal
