Verse
Dm F C G
In the deep, dark hills of eastern Kentucky
Dm F A#
That's the place where I trace my bloodline
A# F C G
And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone
A# A7 Dm
You will never leave Harlan alive
Dm F C G
Well my granddad's dad walked down Katahrins Mountain
Dm F A#
And he asked Tillie Helton to be his bride
A# F C G
Said, won't you walk with me out of the mouth of this holler
A# A7 Dm
Or we'll never leave Harlan alive
[Chorus]
F A# C F
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
Dm A# F A#
And the sun goes down about three in the day
F A# C F
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
Dm A# 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 A#
'Til a man from the Northeast arrived
A# F C G
Waving hundred dollar bills said, I'll pay you for your minerals
A# A7 Dm
But he never left Harlan alive
A# A7 Dm
Dm F C G
Granny sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pineville
Dm F A#
To a farm where big Richland River winds
A# F C G
I bet they danced them a jig, laughed and sang a new song
A# A7 Dm
Who said we'd never leave Harlan alive
[Instrumental Break]
(same chords as verse)
Dm F C G
But the times got hard and tobacco wasn't selling
Dm F A#
And ole granddad knew what he'd do to survive
A# F C G
He went and dug for Harlan coal and sent the money back to granny
A# A7 Dm
But he never left Harlan alive
[Chorus]
F A# C F
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
Dm A# F A#
And the sun goes down about three in the day
F A# C F
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
Dm A# F
And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
[Last Chorus]
F A# C F
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
Dm A# F A#
And the sun goes down about three in the day
F A# C F
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
Dm A# 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 A#
That's the place where I trace my bloodline
A# F C G
And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone
A# A7 Dm
You will never leave Harlan alive
