Arkansas Coal (Suite) Nancy Sinatra
Arkansas Coal (Suite)
[G]Not so long ago just outside Paris Arkansas
a young lady had a mountain to climb
[G]Gonna climb up this mountain cause there’s one thing I know
My daddy is in his mountain diggin' Arkansas c[D]oal
Yes I [G]hear my mama calling, I let her wait ten minutes more she’ll be so
Cause I like to lay on the ground and listen to the sound of my daddy
Digging Arkansas [D]coal
[G]I was born [C7]in this mountain [G]went down here since I was[D] nine years old
And I [G]know some day I’ll die in this [C7]mountain [G]diggin', [D]diggin'
[G]Arkansas, [Bb]Arkansas [G]coal, Arkansas coal
[C7]( Ta[F7]b fr[C7]om: [F7]http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/nancy_sinatra/arkansas_coal_suite_crd.html )
[C7]Married me a [F7]good man [C7]back in ’5[F7]9,
[C7]Knew he was an [F7]Arkansas coalminer [C7]and that suited me [F7]fine
[C7]Got us a little [F7]daughter, [C7]she's only eight years [F7]old
[C7]Wishing she was a [F7]man like her daddy [C7]diggin' A[F7]rkansas [C7]coal
Billie get off that mountain, Billie you got to go to school
Billie your mama and daddy ain’t gonna raise you no natural fool
Ain’t gonna raise you no natural fool
[Am]Mama why is the earth [Em]shaking? [Am]Mama is the world coming [Em]to an end?
[Am]Mama why are you [Em]crying? [Dm]Is it another cave [Am]in?
[A]My God the rocks are [E]fallin', [A]ten thousand tons on my [E]head
[A]I knew someday this would [E]happen so [A]this is how it feels to be [E]dead
So [A]this is how it feels to be [E]dead
Gonna climb up that mountain cause there is one thing I know
My daddy is in that mountain diggin' Arkansas coal
