Capo 3
Intro:
On the hillside in Hazard sits a new doublewide
Gods little acre, pure paradise.
poor boy found heaven, with a good county girl.
He had all he wanted, she was his whole world.
But [Dworking the coal mine, can wear a man down.
He started spending too much time in town.
He found temptation, fell under its spell.
Hillbilly heaven went to honky tonk hell.
Chorus
From Hillbilly heaven to honky tonk hell
From a warm home fire burning, to a cold cheap motel
And an angel is crying, cause her good man fell,
From hillbilly heaven to honky tonk hell.
Instrumental:
(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 )
Now theres a job in the coal mine that needs to be filled
And a heartache in Hazard that wont ever heal
He had it all, now its all for sale
And hillbilly heavens gone to honky tonk hell
Repeat chorus in key of
