Verse
A#m C# G# D#
In the deep, dark hills of eastern Kentucky
A#m C# Gb
That's the place where I trace my bloodline
Gb C# G# D#
And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone
Gb F7 A#m
You will never leave Harlan alive
A#m C# G# D#
Well my granddad's dad walked down Katahrins Mountain
A#m C# Gb
And he asked Tillie Helton to be his bride
Gb C# G# D#
Said, won't you walk with me out of the mouth of this holler
Gb F7 A#m
Or we'll never leave Harlan alive
[Chorus]
C# Gb G# C#
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
A#m Gb C# Gb
And the sun goes down about three in the day
C# Gb G# C#
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
A#m Gb A#m
And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
[Verse]
A#m C# G# D#
No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains
A#m C# Gb
'Til a man from the Northeast arrived
Gb C# G# D#
Waving hundred dollar bills said, I'll pay you for your minerals
Gb F7 A#m
But he never left Harlan alive
Gb F7 A#m
A#m C# G# D#
Granny sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pineville
A#m C# Gb
To a farm where big Richland River winds
Gb C# G# D#
I bet they danced them a jig, laughed and sang a new song
Gb F7 A#m
Who said we'd never leave Harlan alive
[Instrumental Break]
(same chords as verse)
A#m C# G# D#
But the times got hard and tobacco wasn't selling
A#m C# Gb
And ole granddad knew what he'd do to survive
Gb C# G# D#
He went and dug for Harlan coal and sent the money back to granny
Gb F7 A#m
But he never left Harlan alive
[Chorus]
C# Gb G# C#
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
A#m Gb C# Gb
And the sun goes down about three in the day
C# Gb G# C#
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
A#m Gb C#
And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
[Last Chorus]
C# Gb G# C#
Where the sun comes up about ten in the morning
A#m Gb C# Gb
And the sun goes down about three in the day
C# Gb G# C#
And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
A#m Gb A#m
And you spend your life digging coal from the bottom of your grave
A#m C# G# D#
In the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky
A#m C# Gb
That's the place where I trace my bloodline
Gb C# G# D#
And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone
Gb F7 A#m
You will never leave Harlan alive
