Intro: D MajorD
On the [D MajorD]wide
Gods little acre, pure para[A augmentedA]dise.
A augmentedA [D MajorD]girl.

He started spending too much time in []town.
[D MajorD]spell.
Hillbilly heaven went to [D/F#D/F#]
Chorus
From [D MajorD]honky tonk hell
From a warm home fire burning, to a cold cheap mo[A augmentedA]tel
And an [D MajorD]angel is crying, cause her good man [G+G]fell,
From [D MajorD]hillbilly heaven to [A augmentedA]honky tonk [D MajorD]hell.
Instrumental: D MajorD
(Same chords as first verse)
Somewhere in Hazard on a dark dead end street,
Where whiskey and heartache and old memories meet,
He looks for salvation in a bottle each night.
And just goes on living though hes lost his life.
(Key change to E MajorE)
Now theres a [E MajorE]job in the coal mine that [A augmentedA]needs to be [G# minorG#m]filled
And a heartache in Hazard that wont ever [F# minorF#m]heal
[E MajorE]He had it all, now [A augmentedA]its all for [E MajorE]sale
And hillbilly heavens gone to [BB]honky tonk [E MajorE]hell
Repeat chorus in key of E MajorE
