Chords for Doyle Lawson,Paul Williams, JD Crowe, The Hills of Roan County

History of Bluegrass, [Em] ever sing this song like [Bm] Paul does.
[C] When we were working together, I was just a kid, Jimmy [B] would always come.
Paul had a feature spot in every show.
Sometimes he [F#] did two songs.
If they got to like it real [G#] good, I'd turn him to three.
But every time [B] Jimmy would say, well now here's Paul Williams, _ I'd call out this song.
I did it every night because we worked sometimes seven on seven back in [G] those days, you know,
every night.
_ _ One night he looked around and he said, no, I do [F] no other songs.
[Em] _
_ _ _ [B] _ But this is one [E] of my favorites and this is the great [D] Paul Williams singing for you,
The Hills of Brown County.

_ _ For twenty long _ _ _ _ years, _ this [E] old world [B] I rambled. _ _ _
_ _ _ I went to old England, [C#] to France [F#] and to _ Spain.
_ _ _ _ Then I followed _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] in the hills [B] of Brown County. _ _ _ _ _ _
So I boarded a steamer [F#] and came [B] home again. _ _
_ _ _ I was captured _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
in [E] the village [B] of Kingson, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ which [C#] beat one [F#] town to earth. _ _ _ _
When the jury [B] came in, _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [B] the next morning I said, _ _
_ _ [E] all _ _ [B] _
I'd risen were the words that I heard.
_ _ _ _ _ When the train pulled an hour, _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] poor mother, [B] should we been. _ _ _ _ _
[E] And sister, [B] she sat all [C#]
alone [F#] with a son. _ _ _
_ _ And the last words [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] were Willie, [B] God bless you.
_ _ _ _ _ [E] Well Willie, God [B] bless you.
[F#] God bless you.
[D] Goodbye.

_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ [G] Paul Williams, thank you all.
God bless you.
We [N] appreciate you all. _ _ _
