[Intro]
Am G C D Am D G D
[Verse 1]
My Adaddy was a miner, said Gthere was nothing finer
Than an DIrishman who Gworked an honest Aday
From ASteamboat Row, in rain or shine, he'd Gmake his way down to the mine
ADlong the dusty Groad he'd travel
[Chorus]
AFifteen miles to get there, Gfifteen miles to go
DFifteen miles back Amhome again, Dhome to GSteamboat DRow
[Verse 2]
He Aused to tell about the time Ghe got hurt down in the mine
He Dsaid he'd never Ggo back down aAgain
But Ain his heart he knew he would, he Gdid the only thing he could
Was Dkept on walkin' Gdown that road
[Chorus]
AFifteen miles to get there, Gfifteen miles to go
DFifteen miles back Amhome again, Dhome to GSteamboat DRow
[Instrumental]
Am G C D Am D G D
[Verse 3]
But Awhen he took to drinkin' we Gknew that he was thinkin'
That his Ddays were quickly Gcoming to an Aend
He'd Aonly speak of Steamboat Row, he Gsaid someday we ought to go
And Dwalk along that Gdusty road
[Chorus]
AFifteen miles to get there, Gfifteen miles to go
DFifteen miles back Amhome again, Dhome to GSteamboat DRow
[Outro]
Am G C D Am D G D
