Call The Captain
By Steep Canyon Rangers
Capo 2
Call Gup the cD/F#aptain tell em Emi aint comin in
He canG dig his own coD/F#al somthing esle isA2 happening
This lGiving that im mD/F#aking is doing aEm sin
Hes brA2oken the lives of too many good men
Been hauling coal since i was big enough to fight
Some 30 odd shift with out a glimpse of daylight
The corporation likes to say that everythings alright
Dig your self a hole get outa sight
Theres a dark cloud above me thats blocking out the sun
Burn another hundred coal listen to the engines run
1 half is starving while the others having fun
So call the captain, call the captain, call the captain, call the captiannn
(chorus)

I fll it uGp to the tD/F#op and watch it spA2ill on the ground
I goG down to the miD/F#nes and when i coEmme back up
I goA2t nothin to show but the sweat on my brow
These hills are my own flesh and bones
There all that i love and there all that i know
Please dont ask me to destroy my own home
I'm not gonna choose between my heart and soul, soo
Call the Captain tell him i aint coming in
He can dig his own coal something else is happening
This living that making is doing a sin
So call the captain, call the captain,.......call the captainnn
