Nimble Fingers

Nimble fingers playing along This black lung rending mining song It touches your soul and lingers Playing along nimble fingers Heartache breaking common miner Could ne'er be sung any finer A strong tune that's overtaking Common miner, heartache breaking Match the tempo of mountain man As long and as fast as you can Guitar with blues, a great combo Of mountain man, match the tempo This tune that flows from within him Will never let the lights go dim Tap tap your feet and match the throes From within him, this tune that flows

So many of us feel grief especially when we lose a loved one.

Splendidly done to invoke the saddened state of mind: Tap tap your feet and match the throes From within him, this tune that flows.
