I believe I have the Miners Prayer song stored in my memory, from Dwight Yoakum. After a bit of dusting I have written what I can recall and will post it in hopes that it helps Kevin or anyone else who seeks the words and chords to this song... I play it in C C When that sun comes up each morning and I walk G7 down into that cold dark C mine I say a prayer to my dear saviour, please let me G7 see the sunshine one more C time chorus: When oh F when will it be C over, when F will I lay these burdens G down and when I C die dear lord in heaven please take my G7 soul from 'neath this cold dark C ground. I still pine for my dear brother and I still G7 hear my dear old mother C cry late one night they came and told her he lost his G7 life down in the Van Leer mines chorus
