And you D/Fspend your life justEm thinking 'bout how to get away. F Em

No one Emever kGnew there was Dcoal in them mAountains

Until a Emman from the GNortheast Carrived.

The Grandpa That I Know

Key: GCapo 4Easy

Brand new shoes, they Ghurt my Dfeet

This lace collar'sA choking Dme

Cutting off my Gair supDply

When I hang my Ahead to Dcry

I see tears on GDaddy's Dface

Someone's humming "AAmazing DGrace"

Rain beats on this Ggraveside Dtent

Preacher says, "He Adid reDpent."

They've Agot him laying Dthere in pinstripes

GHow'd they get him Din that Asuit?

I Gguess the lord will Drecognize him

Without his overAalls and Dmule

AThey all say he Dlooks so natural

But Gall I see is a Dcold dark Ahole

I Gwon't commit this Dday to memory

That ain't the Grandpa Athat I Dknow

That ain't the Grandpa Athat I Dknow G D A D

A tractor never Gpulled his Dplough

He walked and cussed and Aloved that Dground

His hand sowed each and Gevery Dseed

He'd pray for rain and Afight the Dweeds

He said, "The simple life, it Gsuits me Dfine."

Never dreamed beyond the Acounty Dline

Grandma was his Gboyhood Dbride

He'll be there in her Aarms toDnight

He'll sleep there in her Aarms toDnight

They've Agot him laying Dthere in pinstripes

GHow'd they get him Din that Asuit?

I Gguess the lord will Drecognize him

Without his overAalls and Dmule

AThey all say he Dlooks so natural

But Gall I see is a Dcold dark Ahole

I Gwon't commit this Dday to memory

That ain't the Grandpa Athat I Dknow

They Aplayed a pretty Dorgan number

GSwore it was his Dfavourite Atune

But GI know he preDferred a fiddle

Playing Carol ACounty Dblues

AThey all say he Dlooks so natural

But Gall I see is a Dcold dark Ahole

I Gwon't commit this Dday to memory

That ain't the Grandpa Athat I Dknow

You'll Never Leave Harlen Alive

Key: EmCapo 3Medium

(No chords)

In the deep dark hills of Eastern Kentucky

Thats the place where I traced my bloodline

And its Emthere I Gread on a hiDllside graCvestone

You'll nGever leave HaDrlen aEmlive

Oh my Grandfathers GDad crossed the CumbDerland MouCntains

Where Emhe took a prGetty girl to be his bCride

Said "Won't you Emwalk with Gme out of the Dmouth of this hColler

Or wEme'll never leave HaDrlen aEmlive"

Where the sun comes Gup about tCen in the morGnin

And the sun goes dEmown about tFhree in the Cday

And you fill your cGup with whatever Cbitter brew you're dEmrinkin

And you spend your life just thinkin of hDow to get awEmay

No Emone ever kGnew there was cDoal in them moCuntains

TEmill a man from the noGrtheast arCrived

Wavin hEmundred dollar bGills

Said "I'll pDay for your mCinerals"

ButEm he never left HDarlen aEmlive

GrEmandma sold out cGheap and they mDoved out west of PiCneville

To a Emfarm where Big RiGchland River wCinds

And I bet they daEmnced them a Gjig

And they laughed and sDang a new sCong

"Who said Emwe'd never leave HDarlen aEmlive"

But tEmhe times got hGard and toDbacco wasn't seCllin

And olEmd Granddad knew what hGe'd do to sCurvive

HeEm went and dug for HGarlan coal

And sent the mDoney back to GCrandma

But he nEmever left HDarlen alEmive

Where Gthe sun coCmes up about Gten in the mornin

And the sun goes dEmown about tFhree in the Cday

And you fill your cGup with whatever Cbitter brew you're dEmrinkin

And you spend your life diggin coal from the bDottom of your gEmrave

Mmmmmmmm You'll never leave HaDrlen alEmive

Strong Heart

Key: AmMedium

Dm7

Everybody's had the blues Am

Days when it comes undone C

This really shouldn't bother me Am

I could've left this road I'm on Am

Turned around a thousand times C

Surrendered to the great unknown Am

Give up and leave it all behind

CMy life and Feverything I've Cprayed for G

It takes a Cstrong heart G C

To Fsee love through_G__

To Amcry and never Clet it show

To Amhold on tight and Cnot let go

It takes a strong heart

A Gstrong heart andC you Am Eb Dm7 C

I keep it hidden deep inside Am

It's just a phase I'm going through C

I show the world a pretty face Am

But I'm not really fooling you

It takes a Cstrong heart G C

To Fsee love through_G__
