[D] [A] [D] [D]
[D] Well, I was born a [G] coal miner's [D] daughter [D]
In a cabin on a [E7] hill in [A] Butcher Holler [A7]
We were [D] poor, but we had love
That's the [G] one thing that daddy made [D] sure of
He shoveled coal to [A] make a poor man's [D] dollar [D]
[D] My daddy worked all [G] night in the Van Lear [D] coal mine [D]
All day long in the [E7] field a-hoin' [A] corn [A7]
Mommy [D] rocked the babies at night
And read the [G] Bible by the coal-oil [D] light
And ever'thing would start all [A7] over come break of [D] morn' [D]
{c:key changes skipped}
Daddy [D] loved and raised eight [G] kids on a miner's [D] pay [D]
Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a [E7] washboard ever' [A] day [A7]
Why, I've [D] seen her fingers bleed
To com-[G]plain there was no [D] need
She'd smile in Mommy's [A] understanding [D] way [D]
In the [D] summertime we [G] didn't have shoes to [D] wear [D]
But in the wintertime we'd [E7] all get a brand new [A] pair [A7]
From a [D] mail order catalog
Money [G] made from sellin' a [D] hog
Daddy always managed to [A] get the money [D] somewhere [D]
Yeah! I'm [D] proud to be a [G] coal miner's [D] daughter [D]
I remember well, the [E7] well where I drew [A] water [A7]
The [D] work we done was hard
At night we'd [G] sleep 'cause we were [D] tired
I never thought of ever [A] leaving Butcher [D] Holler [D]
Well, a [D] lot of things have [G] changed since way back [D] then [D]
And it's so good to [E7] be back home a-[A]gain [A7]
Not much [D] left but the floor
Nothing [G] lives here any-[D]more
Except the mem'ries of a [A] coal miner's [D] daughter [A] [D]
