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

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