Artist: George Jones
Song: Open Pit Mine
 
G                               C            G
From Morenci, Arizona where the copper mines glow
G                                   G
I could see Clifton in the canyon below
G                          C             G
In Clifton lived Rosey, we danced and we dined
G                          D        G
On the money I made in the open pit mine.
 
G                          C            G
I loved my sweet Rosey and she loved me too
G                                           G
There was nothing for Rosey that I wouldn't do
G                                  C           G
Her hugs and her kisses, they were something divine
G                              D        G
Gave me reason for working the open pit mine.
 
G                               C         G
While I was out walkin' with my Rosey one day
G                                         G
We passed a store window with rings on display
G                                   C          G
I bought those she wanted, how they really did shine
G                                 D        G
Spent the money I saved from that open pit mine.
 
G                                     C            G
Her love would bring heartbreak, that I would soon learn
G                                             G
'Cause she would two-time me when my back was turned
G                          C             G
Rosey would go dancin' and drink the red wine
G                                   D        G
While I worked like a slave in that open pit mine.
 
G                           C        G
One night I caught Rosey on her rendevous
G                                         G
She was huggin' and kissin' with somebody new
G                                        C           G
It was there that I shot 'em while their arms were entwined
G                              D        G
Then I buried her deep in that open pit mine.
 
G                              C          G
I took a look at my future and what did I see
G                                           G
There was nothing but trouble a-waiting for me
G                                 C       G
But on the sun's next rising I'll be satisfied
G                                          D             G
Cause they'll find me there sleeping by my sweet Rosie's side.
