[N] [D]
In the
[Dm] deep [F] dark hills of [C] Eastern [G] Kentucky
That's the [Dm] place where [F] I trace my [Bb] bloodline
And it's there [C] I [F] hide on a [C]
hillside [F] [G] gravestone
You will [Bb] never leave [A]
Harlan [Dm] lot
Well my granddad's [F]
dad walked [C] down Catteridge [G] Mountain
And he [Dm] asked Tilly [F]
Hilton to be [Bb] his bride
He said [F] won't you [Bb] walk with me
[F] Out of [C] the mouth of this [G] holler
We'll [Bb] never leave [A] Harlan
[Dm]
Where the sun [F] comes up
[Bb] About [C] ten in the [F] morning
Then the sun [Dm] goes down
About [Eb] three [F] in the [Bb] day
You fill [F] your cup
With whatever [Bb] bitter [C] brew you're [F] drinking
And you spend [Dm] your life
Just thinking of [Eb] how to get [Dm] away
Well no one ever [F] knew there was [C] coal in them [G] mountains
[Dm] Till a man from [F] the northeast [Bb] arrived
Waving hundred dollar [F] bills
He said I'll [C] pay for your [G] minerals
[Bb] But he never left [A]
Harlan [D] lot
[Bb] [A]
[Dm]
Granny, she told that to [F] Chino
They [C] moved down west to [G] a [Dm] farm
Where big [F] rich land river [Bb] winds
[F] Bet [Bb] they'd dance them a [C] jig
And laugh and sing a new song
[G] Who said we'd [Bb] never leave [A] Harlan lot
[Dm]
[F] [C]
[G] [Dm]
[F] [Bb]
[F] [C]
[Bm] [Bb]
[Am] [Dm]
But the times they got hard
[F] And [C] tobacco [G] wasn't selling
And no [Dm] granddad knew what [C] he'd do to [Bb]
survive
He went and dug for hard and [F] coal
[C] And sent the money back to granny
But [Bb] he never left [A] [Dm] Harlan lot
Where the sun [F] comes up
About [C] ten in the [F] morning
Then the sun [Dm] goes down
About [Eb] three in the [Bb]
day
And you [F] fill your cup
With whatever [Bb] bitter [C] brew [F] you're drinking
And you spend your [Dm] life
Just thinking of [Eb] how to get [F] away
And the [C] sun [F] comes up
About [Bb]
[C] ten in the [F] morning
And the sun [Dm]
goes down
About [Eb]
three in the [Bb] day
And you fill [F] your cup
With whatever [Bb] bitter brew [F] you're drinking
And you spend your [Dm] life
Digging coal from [Eb] the bottom of [Dm] your grave
In the [D] deep [C] dark [F] hills of [G] eastern Kentucky
[D]
That's the place where I trace my [Dm] [F] bloodline
[D]
And it's there I [F] read on a [G]
hillside [F] gravestone
[Dm]
[F] You'll never [G] leave [Dm] Harlan lot
