 "You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive"
 Recorded by: Brad Paisley
 Written by: Darrell Scott
 Album: Part II
 Transcribed by: Lesley Lenderman
 
 Intro: Dm play 5th string down one at a time, then strum once
 
 [Dm] In the deep, [F] dark hills of [C] eastern [G] Kentucky
 That the [Dm] place where I [F] trace my [Bb] bloodline
 And it’s [Dm] there I [F] read on a [C] hillside [Bb] gravestone
 You will [Dm] never leave [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
 
 Oh, my granddad’s [F] dad walked down [C] Katahrins [G] Mountain
 And he [Dm] asked Tillie [F] Helton to be his [Bb] bride
 Said, won’t you [Dm] walk with me [F] out of the [C] mouth of this [Bb] 
 holler
 Or we’ll [Dm] never leave [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
 
 Chorus
 Where the sun comes [F] up about [Bb] ten in the [F] morning
 And the sun goes [Dm] down about [Am7] three in the [Bb] day
 And you fill your [F] cup with whatever [Bb] bitter brew you’re [F] drinkin’
 And you spend your [Dm] life just thinkin’ of [Am7] how to get [Dm] away
 
 No one ever [F] knew there was [C] coal in them [G] mountains
 ‘Til a [Dm] man from the [F] Northeast [Bb] arrived
 Waving [Dm] hundred dollar [F] bills said, I’ll [C] pay you for your [Bb] 
 minerals
 But he [Dm] never left [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
 
 Granny sold out [F] cheap and they [C] moved out west of [G] Pineville
 To a [Dm] farm where big [F] Richland River [Bb] winds
 I bet they [Dm] danced them a [F] jig, laughed and [C] sang a new [Bb] song
 Who said we’d [Dm] never leave [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
 
 {Break-same as verse}
 
 But the [Dm] times they got [F] hard and tobacco [C] wasn’t [G] selling
 And ole [Dm] granddad knew what [F] he’d do to [Bb] survive
 He went and [Dm] dug for Harlan [F] coal and sent the [C] money back to [G] 
 granny
 But he [Dm] never left [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
 
 Where the sun comes [F] up about [Bb] ten in the [F] morning
 And the sun goes [Dm] down about [Am7] three in the [Bb] day
 And you fill your [F] cup with whatever [Bb] bitter brew you’re [F] drinkin’
 And you spend your [Dm] life digging coal from the [Am7] bottom of your [Dm] 
 grave
 
 Repeat Chorus
 
 [Dm] In the deep, [F] dark hills of [C] eastern [G] Kentucky
 That the [Dm] place where I [F] trace my [Bb] bloodline
 And it’s [Dm] there I [F] read on a [C] hillside [Bb] gravestone
 You will [Dm] never leave [Am7] Harlan [Dm] alive
