	  		Intro: 

Dm   

Verse 1:    

       Dm              C          C/B  
It was April 27 in the year of 91 
       Am                             Dm 
Bout a mile below the surface and the warm kentucky sun 
    Dm                            C                    C/B 
The late shift was ending and the early shift was late. 
    Am                            Dm 
The foreman ate his dinner from a dirty tin plate
