[Verse 1]
F# F#m B7
Deep in the land of the hollows an' creeks
F#m A
If'n you git lost you git lost fer weeks
F#m7 B
Listen to the tale of a man who got lost
F#m7 A B
B hundred feet under the winter frost
[Verse 2]
F#m B7
Now Floyd was a reasonin' man;
F#m A
He knew what he wanted an' he had a plan
F#m7 B
He was jes' as smart as he was brave;
F#m7 A B
He was gonna find him the perfect cave
[Chorus]
D D7 A B
Even Floyd knew somethin' wasn't right
D D7 A E
He was suff'rin' nightmares at night
[Verse 3]
F#m B7
But he didn't worry 'bout what he dreamed;
F#m A
Things was goin' good or so it seemed
F#m7 B B7
Went lookin' fer his fortune under the ground...
F#m7 A B7 F# F#
Sure enough his fortune is what he found
Reprise
[Verse 1]
Em A
The air was cold and the ground was wet
Em G
I was just as muddy as a man could get
Em A
Hadn’t any light but a little oil lantern
Em A
Got you in so tight that you know you can’t turn back
Em A
I was slippin' round on my belly an' knees
Em G
I could feel my fingertips about to freeze
Em A
I could almost see where the prisoner lay
G A
Just about t' holler when I heard him pray
[PRE-Chorus 1]
C D A
Oh my lord, have mercy on my soul
C G D
Don’t let me die alone in this dark hole
C D A
And when my savior is at hand
C G D
I’ll be sure to meet him on top of the land
[Chorus]
Em A
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
Em G
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
Em A
Never set another foot inside a cave
G A
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
D C G
And there he remains all alone
Em A Em A
In a cold Kentucky hillside
D C G
There he remains all alone
Em A Em A
In a cold Kentucky hillside
[Verse 2]
Em A
He was layin' still like he was dead
Em G
Water drippin' down on top his head
Em A
Seven whole days he hadn’t had a crumb
G A
His eyes were sunk and wearisome
Em A
He swallowed what I had right outta my hand
Em G
Then he took some coffee from an old tin can
Em A
I told we would soon dig him outta this place
G A
And a little smile goes across his face
[PRE-Chorus 2]
C D A
He said boy, thank god that you are here
C G D
Now I know my rescue is near
C D A
And when my time comes to die
C G D
I’ll be sure to do it where I can see the sky
[Chorus]
Em A
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
Em G
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
Em A
Never set another foot inside a cave
G A
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
D C G
And there he remains all alone
Em A Em A
In a cold Kentucky hillside
D C G
There he remains all alone
Em A Em A
In a cold Kentucky hillside
