You know when I was about eight years old, used to go with my grandpa up to

the town square, set him down up there on a picnic bench and he used to play
B B B B E F#
checkers with them other old men up there. They used to tell stories bout when they were kids.
B B E E F# F# B
Grandpa says he shot the chief of police, when he was nine years old. N' I believe him,
B B B E F#
cause they tell me that Hazard, Kentucky's the baldest place in the world. Why,
B B
they say they used to sit out there on their front porch, shoot then revenuers,
E E F# F#
when they'd come down the hollow. Said they was so young,
B B B B
took two o' them boys to hold the rifle and one to pull the trigger, hymn. Well, grandpa,
E F# B B E F# B
he'd lie a little bit, but I'll tell you, there's a lot of stories in Harlan County.
[Verse 1]
B E B
Yeah, folks in Harlan County Lord they knew that we were poor
F#
They always called my daddy preacher Dan
B E B
But daddy weren't no preacher least ways I don't recollect
F# B
Never hear of papa talk of nothin' but the land.
[Chorus 1]
E F# B E
F#nd Daddy Was A God Fearin’ farmer yes he was
B F#
Could not read nor write Lord he could barely sign his name
E F# B E
Daddy Was F# God Fearin’ farmer all his life
B F# B
Someday when I’m grown I’ll be the same.
[Verse 2]
B E B
Well he always grew tobacco though he did not smoke himself
F#
He had the best tobacco crop around
B E B
And he never touched a drop of liquor that I can recall
F# B
Papa made his livin' on the ground.
[Verse 3]
B E B
Yes Sunday-go-to-meetin' called for more than he could stand
F#
I guess he felt at home in his old clothes
B E B
But he never missed a Sunday takin’ momma to the church
F# B
Maybe it was habit, Lord but Heaven only knows.
[Chorus 2]
