From: rogers@hi.com (Andrew Rogers)

"New York Mining Disaster 1941"

(B. Gibb)

Verse 1:

Am

In the event of something happening to me

D

There is something I would like you all to see

G Am/D [xx0555]

It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

Chorus:

G C G

Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?

G C F

Do you know what it's like on the outside

Esus4 E

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

Am

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

D G F

Thinking those who once existed must be dead

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3 [repeat verse 1; slightly different chords at end]

In the event of something happening to me

There is something I would like you all to see

G Am/D D

It's just a photograph of someone that I knew

[repeat chorus]

Coda:

Am Am/G Am/F Am/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 used; the chord fingerings in

that tuning are:

Am x07677 Am/D 000677

C 575675 [or barre at 10th fret]

D 000000

E 222222 Esus4 222322

F 333333

G 555555
