Tuning:
I find this song easier to sing (and play) in G, Transpose +7
[Verse]:
When the wChistle blows each morning
And I G7walk down in that cold dark Cmine
I say a Cprayer to my dear savior
please let me G7see that sun shine one more Ctime
[Chorus]:
Fwhen oh when will it be Cover
When Fwill I lay these burdens Gdown
And when I Cdie, dear Lord in heaven
Please take sG7oul from 'neath that cold dark Cground
[Verse]:
I still Cgrieve for my poor brother
and I still G7hear my dear old mother Ccry
Late that Cnight they came and told her
he lost his G7life down in the van leer Cmine
[Chorus]:
Fwhen oh when will it be Cover
When Fwill I lay these burdens Gdown
And when I Cdie, dear Lord in heaven
Please take G7soul from 'neath that cold dark ground
[Verse]:
I have no Cshame, I feel no sorrow
If this G7earth, not much IC own
I have the Clove of my sweet children
An old plow G7mule, a shovel and a Choe
[Chorus]:
Fwhen oh when will it be Cover
When Fwill I lay these burdens Gdown
And when I Cdie, dear Lord in heaven
Please take G7soul from 'neath that cold dark gCround
Yeah when I Cdie, dear Lord in heaven
Please take G7soul from 'neath that cold dark Cground
