[Verse 1]
F#m D
This land is barren and broken
E A E
Scarred like the face of the moon
F#m C#m
Our tongue is no longer spoken
D E
Towns all around face ruin
F#m D
Will there be work in New Brunswick
E A E
Will I find gold in the Cape
F#m C#m
If I tunnel way down to Australia
D E
Oh, how will I ever escape
[Chorus]
A E
Where there’s a mine or a hole in the ground
F#m D
That’s where I’m heading for that’s where I’m bound
E A E D E
So look for me under the lode and inside the vein
A E
Where the copper the clay where the arsenic and tin
F#m D
Running in your blood digging under your skin
E A E D
I’m leaving the county behind and I’m not coming back
E D F#m
So, follow me down cousin Jack
[Verse 2]
F#m D
The soil was too poor to make Eden
E A E
Granite and sea left no choice
F#m C#m
Though visions of heaven sustained us
D E
When John Wesley gave us a voice
F#m D
Did Joseph once come to St Michael’s mount
E A E
Two thousand years pass in a dream
F#m C#m
When you’re working your way in the darkness
D E
Deep in the heart of the seam
[Chorus]
A E
Where there’s a mine or a hole in the ground
F#m D
That’s where I’m heading for that’s where I’m bound
E A E D E
So look for me under the lode and inside the vein
A E
Where the copper the clay where the arsenic and tin
F#m D
Running in your blood digging under your skin
E A E D
I’m leaving the county behind and I’m not coming back
E D F#m
So, follow me down cousin Jack
[Verse 3]
F#m D
I dream of a bridge across the Tamar
E A E
It opens us up to the east
F#m C#m
I see the English living in our houses
D E
I see Spanish fishing in our seas
[Chorus]
A E
Where there’s a mine or a hole in the ground
F#m D
That’s where I’m heading for that’s where I’m bound
E A E D E
So look for me under the lode and inside the vein
A E
Where the copper the clay where the arsenic and tin
F#m D
Running in your blood digging under your skin
E A E D
I’m leaving the county behind and I’m not coming back
