[Verse 1]
Bm A Bm
I was standin' beside the road in Blackjack County
Bm A F#
Not knowing the sheriff paid a bounty
Bm A G F#
For men like me who didn't have a penny to their names
Bm A F# F#/A Bm
So he locked my leg to thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
[Verse 2]
Bm A Bm
And all we had to eat was bread and water
Bm A F#
And each day we had to build that road a mile and a quarter
Bm A G F#
B black snake whip would crack our backs if some poor fool complained
Bm A F# F#/A Bm
And you couldn't fight back wearin' thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
[Verse 3]
Bm A Bm
And then one night when the sheriff was a-sleepin'
Bm A F#
We gathered all around him slowly creepin'
Bm A G F#
Heaven help me to forget that night in the cold, cold rain
Bm A F# F#/A Bm
When we beat him to death with thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
Bm A Bm
Now the whip marks have all healed and I am thankful
Bm A F#
That there's nothing but these scars around my ankles
Bm A G F#
But most of all I'm glad no man will be a slave again
Bm A F# F#/A Bm
To a black snake whip and thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
Bm A F# F#/A Bm
To a black snake whip and thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
F# F#/A Bm
Blackjack County chain
