Nine Pound Hammer

                      C                      F
Well, this nine pound hammer is a little too heavy
       C     G            C
For my size, honey for my size
                 C                         F
I'm going on the mountain, going to see my baby
                    C     G                    C
And I am not coming back, Lord I am not coming back


[Chorus]
            C                         F
Oh, roll on Buddy, don't you roll so slow
          C  G              C
How can I go when my wheels won't roll
        C                    F
Roll on Buddy, pull a load o'coal
          C  G              C
How can I go when my wheels won't roll

[Verse 2]
                         C                   F
Well, it's a long way to Harlem, it's a long way to Hazard
                    C      G                    C
Just to get a little brew, just to get a little brew
             C                         F
Now when I'm long gone you can make my tombstone
                   C     G                  C
Out of number nine coal, out of number nine coal


[Chorus]
            C                         F
Oh, roll on Buddy, don't you roll so slow
          C  G              C
How can I go when my wheels won't roll
        C                    F
Roll on Buddy, pull a load o'coal
          C  G              C
How can I go when my wheels won't roll
