Sister Hazel - Ten candle days

^CDaddy was a hard man, worked coal all his life A dollar a ^Gday wage^Am kept us alive So we headed ^Cwest bound, we came of age Fortunes to ^Gbe found, and we s^Amtake our claim

Singing ^Gah, ale-ale-alah^{F C} And wh^Cen I die, won^F't you lay m^Ce on down by Rowing fork river near the old aspen^G grov^Ce ^CSpend our days searching these mo^Funtains for silv^Cer ten candle days will be gone f^Gore too long ^C

^CSo we found us a boom town, to work in the cracks We’re thankin^Gg the Lord now, for the strength in ou^Amr backs With pick ax a^Cnd powder, a quick prayer to God A candle an h^Gour, for each one on the job^Am We learned fast a man’s me^Casured, by the weight of his ore Found the woman you tr^Geasure, could love nothing more^Am The summer of ei^Cghteen blessed us with a child A past ever chan^Gging, with pressure in tim^Ame

Singing ^Gah, ale-ale-alah^{F C} And wh^Cen I die, won^F't you lay m^Ce on down by Rowing fork river near the old aspen^G grov^Ce ^CSpend our days searching these mo^Funtains for silv^Cer ten candle days will be gone f^Gore too long ^C Shine o^Fn, shine O^Cn These ten candle days shine on ^G Shine o^Amn, shine O^Gn When the li^Cghts come down low^G We'll be coming ho^Cme

^CMy brothers are gone now, black soot for ash I guess wh^Gat you take out, you gotta ^Amgive back Lonely pros^Cpector, the last of my kind Sole pro^Gtector of this silver mi^Amne

Singing ^Gah, ale-ale-alah^{F C} And wh^Cen I die, won^F't you lay m^Ce on down by Rowing fork river near the old aspen^G grov^Ce ^CSpend our days searching these mo^Funtains for silv^Cer ten candle days will be gone f^Gore too long ^C Shine o^Fn, shine O^Cn These ten candle days shine on ^G Shine o^Amn, shine O^Gn When the li^Cghts come down low^G We'll be coming hom^Fe... ^C
