On the live version he plays G C C/B Am with the guitar tuned 2 steps down

There ain't much more coal to go down to

There ain't much more soul 
To get roGmund to 
FNot anymore Bb  F  
Mother I hear for the laddies 
Ain't much more soul to get round to 
Lessening of companies that are finding 
Things to bind to it anymore 
BbI'd hate to just realise why C7  
That company's getting so shy 
The bairns don't have get-togethers 
Round here not anymore F  
Mother I hear for the laddies 
Talking 'bout going on down to 
The town where the money's just bound to 
Surely just ease the door 
 F............                             
It's happening all over the city 
Bb........................
There ain't much more doubt 
To get down to 
Lessening of reasons 
That can send you 
Back down for more 
They're telling their sisters of why 
Feelings that pass them close by 
All that they seek 
Is what they're wanting to keep 
And it's glistening right there in their eyes 
So mother I fear for the laddies 
Father says no one goes down to 
The face of some mine no boy of mine's 
Gonna be bound to, anymore 
The future, a brave new awakening 
Have to no more go back down to 
The bowels of this earth that will take you 
Away from home and more

F Bb F

Not anymore

Mother I hear for the laddies

Ain't much more soul to get round to

Lessening of companies that are finding

Things to bind to it anymore

Bb C7

I'd hate to just realise why

That company's getting so shy

The bairns don't have get-togethers

Round here not anymore

Mother I hear for the laddies

Talking 'bout going on down to

The town where the money's just bound to

Surely just ease the door

Lessening of reasons

They're telling their sisters of why

Feelings that pass them close by

All that they seek

And it's glistening right there in their eyes

So mother I fear for the laddies

The face of some mine no boy of mine's

Gonna be bound to, anymore

The future, a brave new awakening

Have to no more go back down to

The bowels of this earth that will take you

Away from home and more
