[Verse 1]
DShe was always a very pretty ladyDsus4
DHe had always caught her eyeDsus4
DThey were married in a mining valley
And Bmswore they'd be together 'til the Gday that they Ddied
D Dsus4 D
[Verse 2]
DTwenty years later with the coal all gone
Dsus4And the Dgolden lamp in his hand Dsus4
He Dstands at the bar with a pint and his friends
They Bmall agree together that theGy don't undersDtand
[Pre-Chorus]
BmMeanwhile little David takes his Dbooks off to Gschool
And Dlearns of times gone Cpast
BmAnd when it comes to questions he Dputs up his Ghand
There's Dsomething that he just wants to Cask
[Chorus]
DPlease sir can you Dsus4give me and answer
DPlease sir you know it Dsus4doesn't seem fair
DLast night as I Dsus4walked through the door
I Bmthought I saw my father crying Gsat in his Dchair
D Dsus4 D
[Verse 3]
DShe stood there with her arms around him Dsus4and she said
DShe promised him a better dayDsus4
DBut after twenty years of working underground
It's Bmnot just your job that Gthey take aDway
[Pre-Chorus]
BmSometimes he'd walk to the Dedge of his Gworld
And Dstare at the valley beClow
BmHe thought about leaving maybe Drunning aGway
But Dknew there was nowhere to Cgo
[Chorus]
DPlease sir can you Dsus4give me and answer
DPlease sir you know I Dsus4just can't see
DPlease sir when you Dsus4make these decisions
BmDo you have a vision of what Ghappens to Dme
DPlease sir can you Dsus4give me and answer
DPlease sir you know I Dsus4just can't say
DPlease sir when you Dsus4make these decisions
BmDo you have a vision of what Ghappens to Dme
D Dsus4 D D Dsus4 D Bm G D
[Verse 4]
DLife goes on in a mining valley Dsus4
But the Dyoung men leave for a better wage Dsus4
DAnd every day he coughs and he splutters
He Bmknows that love is the Greason he Dstays
He Bmknows that love is the Greason he Dstays
[Pre-Chorus]
BmMeanwhile little David takes his Dbooks off to Gschool
And Dlearns of times gone Cpast
BmAnd when it comes to questions he Dputs up his Ghand
There's Dsomething that he just wants to Cask
[Chorus]
DPlease sir can you Dsus4give me and answer
DPlease sir you know it Dsus4doesn't seem fair
DLast night as I Dsus4walked through the door
I Bmthought I saw my daddy crying Gsat in his Dchair
DPlease sir can you Dsus4give me and answer
DPlease sir you know I Dsus4just can't say
DPlease sir when you Dsus4make these decisions
BmDo you have a vision of what Ghappens to Dme
BmDo you have a vision of what Ghappens to Dme
BmPlease take a look now, take a Glook and Dsee
