[Verse 1]
A Am D7
Deep in the land of the hollows an' creeks
Am C
If'n you git lost you git lost fer weeks
Am7 D
Listen to the tale of a man who got lost
Am7 C D
D hundred feet under the winter frost
[Verse 2]
Am D7
Now Floyd was a reasonin' man;
Am C
He knew what he wanted an' he had a plan
Am7 D
He was jes' as smart as he was brave;
Am7 C D
He was gonna find him the perfect cave
[Chorus]
F F7 C D
Even Floyd knew somethin' wasn't right
F F7 C G
He was suff'rin' nightmares at night
[Verse 3]
Am D7
But he didn't worry 'bout what he dreamed;
Am C
Things was goin' good or so it seemed
Am7 D D7
Went lookin' fer his fortune under the ground...
Am7 C D7 A A
Sure enough his fortune is what he found
Reprise
[Verse 1]
Gm C
The air was cold and the ground was wet
Gm A#
I was just as muddy as a man could get
Gm C
Hadn’t any light but a little oil lantern
Gm C
Got you in so tight that you know you can’t turn back
Gm C
I was slippin' round on my belly an' knees
Gm A#
I could feel my fingertips about to freeze
Gm C
I could almost see where the prisoner lay
A# C
Just about t' holler when I heard him pray
[PRE-Chorus 1]
D# F C
Oh my lord, have mercy on my soul
D# A# F
Don’t let me die alone in this dark hole
D# F C
And when my savior is at hand
D# A# F
I’ll be sure to meet him on top of the land
[Chorus]
Gm C
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
Gm A#
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
Gm C
Never set another foot inside a cave
A# C
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
F D# A#
And there he remains all alone
Gm C Gm C
In a cold Kentucky hillside
F D# A#
There he remains all alone
Gm C Gm C
In a cold Kentucky hillside
[Verse 2]
Gm C
He was layin' still like he was dead
Gm A#
Water drippin' down on top his head
Gm C
Seven whole days he hadn’t had a crumb
A# C
His eyes were sunk and wearisome
Gm C
He swallowed what I had right outta my hand
Gm A#
Then he took some coffee from an old tin can
Gm C
I told we would soon dig him outta this place
A# C
And a little smile goes across his face
[PRE-Chorus 2]
D# F C
He said boy, thank god that you are here
D# A# F
Now I know my rescue is near
D# F C
And when my time comes to die
D# A# F
I’ll be sure to do it where I can see the sky
[Chorus]
Gm C
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
Gm A#
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
Gm C
Never set another foot inside a cave
A# C
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
F D# A#
And there he remains all alone
Gm C Gm C
In a cold Kentucky hillside
F D# A#
There he remains all alone
Gm C Gm C
In a cold Kentucky hillside
