New York Mining Disaster

"New York Mining Disaster 1941"

(Barry Gibb / Robin Gibb)

/ / / / / / / /

Verse 1:

In the event of something happening to me

There is something I would like you all to see

G 1: Am/D [xx0555]

3: Am D

It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?

Do you know what it's like on the outside

(F) E

Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide

Mr. Jones

Verse 2:

I keep straining my ears to hear a sound

Maybe someone is digging underground

Or have they given up and all gone home to bed

Thinking those who once existed must be dead

Coda:

Am /G /F /E Am/D

(Mr. Jones)

OK, if you want all of these to sound exact you'll have to tune to open D

(low to high: D A D F# A D) like Barry Gibb; the chord fingerings in that

tuning are:

Am x07677

Am/D 000677

C 575675 [Barry barres at 10th fret]

D 000000

E 222222

F 333333

G 555555
