**Lyrics:**
       Am          F  
In the cold Kentucky hills,  
        C               G  
There's a story that they tell,  
       Am               F  
Of a man who lived and died,  
       C               G  
In a land that knew him well.  

       Am           F  
No matter where he wandered,  
      C               G  
He could never find his way,  
       Am               F  
Back to the place he started,  
      C                 G  
In Harlan, he would stay.  

       Am            F  
You'll never leave Harlan alive,  
       C             G  
You'll never leave Harlan alive,  
       Am            F  
And the ghosts will keep on calling,  
       C            G  
From the mountains up high.  

       Am           F  
So if you find your way there,  
      C               G  
And the shadows start to grow,  
       Am                F  
Remember those who came before,  
      C              G  
And the stories that they know.
