Biografia:
Misturando um sincero amor e respeito pelas tradições da música irlandesa com um senso de aventura melódica e instrumental que sugere um claro foco no futuro, Solas tem se estabilizado como um dos melhores grupos de folk celta trabalhando nos Estados Unidos, com mais de um escritor descrevendo-os como talvez a melhor banda tradicional irlandesa existente.
Solas é a ideia do multi-instrumentista Seamus Egan. Nascido na Pensilvânia em 1969, Seamus mudou-se para a Irlanda com sua família quando ele tinha três anos de idade

Am Am G Am Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Seven years a miner, I'll mine for seven more
G Am
No better man on earth now to move the mountain floor
Am
So load us in that chippy that drops down every day
G Am
No braver men on Earth boys no matter what they say
[Chorus 1]
G F Am
So, tell God and the devil they can try
F E Am
But today's not gonna be the day we die
[Verse 2]
Am
Don't want to see those helmet men come to carry you
G Am
The ground so cold and hard above they won't even bury you
Am
So tap tap tap her lightly, as lightly as she goes
G Am
You better take some cover now and hide before she blows
[Chorus 2]
G F Am
Get those picks and shovels off your backs
F E Am
Get the rocks into the box and down the tracks

[Verse 3]
C G/B Am C G/B Am
There's muckers and there's skinners and nippers on the drill
G Am
They'll work all day and night boys, as only miners will
Am
We'll chase rebellious copper, the walls you pick and hack
G Am
Don't worry if you're diggin' scared, us miners got your back
[Chorus 3]
G F Am
So, tell God and the devil they can try
F E Am
But today's not gonna be the day we die

[Verse 4]
Am
God can't fetch you down here and the Devil's got your name
G Am
Your life hangs in the balance on this fragile human chain
Am
Then when your spirit's waning, the fear is yours to tame
G Am
When you feel the darkness closing, turn up your carbon flame
[Chorus 4]
G F Am
So, tell God and the devil they can try
F E Am
But today's not gonna be the day we die
G F Am
So, tell God and the devil they can try
F E Am
But today's not gonna be the day we die
