"New York Mining Disaster 1941"
(B. Gibb)

Verse 1:

Am
In the event of something happening to me
D
There is something I would like you all to see
G Am/D [xx0555]
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

Chorus:

G C G
Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
G C F
Do you know what it's like on the outside
Esus4 E
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide
Am
Mr. Jones

Verse 2:

I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
Maybe someone is digging underground
Or have they given up and all gone home to bed
D G F
Thinking those who once existed must be dead

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3 [repeat verse 1; slightly different chords at end]

In the event of something happening to me
There is something I would like you all to see
G Am/D D
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

[repeat chorus]

Coda:

Am Am/G Am/F Am/E Am/D
Mr. Jones...

OK, if you want all of these to sound exact you'll have to tune to open D
(low to high: D A D F# A D) like Barry Gibb used; the chord fingerings in
that tuning are:

Am x07677 Am/D 000677
C 575675 [or barre at 10th fret]
D 000000
E 222222 Esus4 222322
F 333333
G 555555
