[Verse 1]
G# G#m C#7
Deep in the land of the hollows an' creeks
G#m B
If'n you git lost you git lost fer weeks
G#m7 C#
Listen to the tale of a man who got lost
G#m7 B C#
C# hundred feet under the winter frost
[Verse 2]
G#m C#7
Now Floyd was a reasonin' man;
G#m B
He knew what he wanted an' he had a plan
G#m7 C#
He was jes' as smart as he was brave;
G#m7 B C#
He was gonna find him the perfect cave
[Chorus]
E E7 B C#
Even Floyd knew somethin' wasn't right
E E7 B F#
He was suff'rin' nightmares at night
[Verse 3]
G#m C#7
But he didn't worry 'bout what he dreamed;
G#m B
Things was goin' good or so it seemed
G#m7 C# C#7
Went lookin' fer his fortune under the ground...
G#m7 B C#7 G# G#
Sure enough his fortune is what he found
Reprise
[Verse 1]
F#m B
The air was cold and the ground was wet
F#m A
I was just as muddy as a man could get
F#m B
Hadn’t any light but a little oil lantern
F#m B
Got you in so tight that you know you can’t turn back
F#m B
I was slippin' round on my belly an' knees
F#m A
I could feel my fingertips about to freeze
F#m B
I could almost see where the prisoner lay
A B
Just about t' holler when I heard him pray
[PRE-Chorus 1]
D E B
Oh my lord, have mercy on my soul
D A E
Don’t let me die alone in this dark hole
D E B
And when my savior is at hand
D A E
I’ll be sure to meet him on top of the land
[Chorus]
F#m B
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
F#m A
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
F#m B
Never set another foot inside a cave
A B
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
E D A
And there he remains all alone
F#m B F#m B
In a cold Kentucky hillside
E D A
There he remains all alone
F#m B F#m B
In a cold Kentucky hillside
[Verse 2]
F#m B
He was layin' still like he was dead
F#m A
Water drippin' down on top his head
F#m B
Seven whole days he hadn’t had a crumb
A B
His eyes were sunk and wearisome
F#m B
He swallowed what I had right outta my hand
F#m A
Then he took some coffee from an old tin can
F#m B
I told we would soon dig him outta this place
A B
And a little smile goes across his face
[PRE-Chorus 2]
D E B
He said boy, thank god that you are here
D A E
Now I know my rescue is near
D E B
And when my time comes to die
D A E
I’ll be sure to do it where I can see the sky
[Chorus]
F#m B
I won’t go diggin' round in the hollows and holes
F#m A
I’ma leave it up to the hogs and moles
F#m B
Never set another foot inside a cave
A B
If I make it out of this lonesome grave
E D A
And there he remains all alone
F#m B F#m B
In a cold Kentucky hillside
E D A
There he remains all alone
F#m B F#m B
In a cold Kentucky hillside
