[Verse 1]
A# A#m D#7
Deep in the land of the hollows an' creeks
A#m C#
If'n you git lost you git lost fer weeks
A#m7 D#
Listen to the tale of a man who got lost
A#m7 C# D#
D# hundred feet under the winter frost
[Verse 2]
A#m D#7
Now Floyd was a reasonin' man;
A#m C#
He knew what he wanted an' he had a plan
A#m7 D#
He was jes' as smart as he was brave;
A#m7 C# D#
He was gonna find him the perfect cave
[Chorus]
F# F#7 C# D#
Even Floyd knew somethin' wasn't right
F# F#7 C# G#
He was suff'rin' nightmares at night
[Verse 3]
A#m D#7
But he didn't worry 'bout what he dreamed;
A#m C#
Things was goin' good or so it seemed
A#m7 D# D#7
Went lookin' fer his fortune under the ground...
A#m7 C# D#7 A# A#
Sure enough his fortune is what he found
Reprise
[Verse 1]
G#m C#
The air was cold and the ground was wet
G#m B
I was just as muddy as a man could get
G#m C#
Hadn’t any light but a little oil lantern
G#m C#
Got you in so tight that you know you can’t turn back
G#m C#
I was slippin' round on my belly an' knees
G#m B
I could feel my fingertips about to freeze
G#m C#
I could almost see where the prisoner lay
B C#
Just about t' holler when I heard him pray
[PRE-Chorus 1]
E F# C#
Oh my lord, have mercy on my soul
E B F#
Don’t let me die alone in this dark hole
E F# C#
And when my savior is at hand
E B F#
I’ll be sure to meet him on top of the land
[Chorus]
G#m C#
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
G#m B
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
G#m C#
Never set another foot inside a cave
B C#
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
F# E B
And there he remains all alone
G#m C# G#m C#
In a cold Kentucky hillside
F# E B
There he remains all alone
G#m C# G#m C#
In a cold Kentucky hillside
[Verse 2]
G#m C#
He was layin' still like he was dead
G#m B
Water drippin' down on top his head
G#m C#
Seven whole days he hadn’t had a crumb
B C#
His eyes were sunk and wearisome
G#m C#
He swallowed what I had right outta my hand
G#m B
Then he took some coffee from an old tin can
G#m C#
I told we would soon dig him outta this place
B C#
And a little smile goes across his face
[PRE-Chorus 2]
E F# C#
He said boy, thank god that you are here
E B F#
Now I know my rescue is near
E F# C#
And when my time comes to die
E B F#
I’ll be sure to do it where I can see the sky
[Chorus]
G#m C#
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
G#m B
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
G#m C#
Never set another foot inside a cave
B C#
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
F# E B
And there he remains all alone
G#m C# G#m C#
In a cold Kentucky hillside
F# E B
There he remains all alone
G#m C# G#m C#
In a cold Kentucky hillside
