the town square, set him down up there on a picnic bench and he used to play

checkers with them other old men up there. They used to tell stories bout when they were kids.

Grandpa says he shot the chief of police, when he was nine years old. N' I believe him,
G G G C D
cause they tell me that Hazard, Kentucky's the baldest place in the world. Why,

they say they used to sit out there on their front porch, shoot then revenuers,
C C D D
when they'd come down the hollow. Said they was so young,
G G G G
took two o' them boys to hold the rifle and one to pull the trigger, hymn. Well, grandpa,

he'd lie a little bit, but I'll tell you, there's a lot of stories in Harlan County.
