G = 320003Verse
Dm F C G In the deep, dark hills of eastern Kentucky Dm F Bb That's the place where I trace my bloodline Bb F C G And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone Bb A7 Dm You will never leave Harlan alive Dm F C G Well my granddad's dad walked down Katahrins Mountain Dm F Bb And he asked Tillie Helton to be his bride Bb F C G Said, won't you walk with me out of the mouth of this holler Bb A7 Dm Or we'll never leave Harlan alive
Chorus
F Bb C F Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning Dm Bb F Bb And the sun goes down about three in the day F Bb C F And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' Dm Bb Dm And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
Verse
Dm F C G No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains Dm F Bb 'Til a man from the Northeast arrived Bb F C G Waving hundred dollar bills said, I'll pay you for your minerals Bb A7 Dm But he never left Harlan alive Bb A7 Dm Dm F C G Granny sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pineville Dm F Bb To a farm where big Richland River winds Bb F C G I bet they danced them a jig, laughed and sang a new song Bb A7 Dm Who said we'd never leave Harlan alive
Instrumental Break

And ole granddad knew what he'd do to survive
Bb F C G
He went and dug for Harlan coal and sent the money back to granny

But he never left Harlan aliveChorus
F Bb C F Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning Dm Bb F Bb And the sun goes down about three in the day F Bb C F And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' Dm Bb F And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
Last Chorus
F Bb C F Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning Dm Bb F Bb And the sun goes down about three in the day F Bb C F And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' Dm Bb Dm And you spend your life digging coal from the bottom of your grave Dm F C G In the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky Dm F Bb That's the place where I trace my bloodline Bb F C G And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone Bb A7 Dm You will never leave Harlan alive
