CAPO: 4th Fret INTRO: Am G Am G I live beside this dark coal mine Am E E7 The whistle blows every day on time Am G When the rain pours down and the wind blows hard Am G Am Am Black flowers grow in my yard G And when I lost my man down that old coal shaft Am E E7 I swear I heard the devil laugh Am G The angels laughed and they took my heart Am G Am Now black flowers grow in my yard F C And the undertaker is a busy man Am E E7 He got a clean blue shirt, got soft pink hands Am G Got a big driveway and a brand new car Am G Am Black flowers grow in my yard F C And when the baby cries, I sing hush little one Am E E7 But I swear that I'm gonna come undone Am G 'Cause when the rain pours down and the wind blows hard Am G Am Black flowers grow in my yard G Am Black flowers grow in my yard G Am GAGAm Black flowers grow in my yard
