Schooldays over, come on then John
Am C G
Time to be getting your pit boots on
C Bm
On with your sack and your moleskin trousers
C G/B Am
It's time you were on your way
G
Time you were learning the pitman's job
Am D D/C D/B D/A D D/C D/B
And earning a pitman's pay
[Verse]
D G
Come on then Jim, it's time to go
Am C G
Time you were working down below
C Bm
Time to be handling a pick and shovel
C G/B Am
You start at the pits today
G
Time you were learning the collier's job
Am D D/C D/B D/A D D/C D/B
And earning a collier's pay
[Verse]
D G
Come on then Dai, it's almost light
Am C G
Time you were off to the anthracite
C Bm
The morning mist is on the valley
C G/B Am
It's time you were on your way
G
Time you were learning the miner's job
Am D D/C D/B D/A D D/C D/B
And earning a miner's pay
