[Verse 1]
G         C     D G                  C      D
Hillbilly blood,  runnin' through my veins
G          C   D      G           C    D
Black coal soul and a mountain of pain
G            C     D   G           C     D
Jug of white lightning crossin' my lips
G         C            D     C
Hillbilly blood don't give a shit


[Interlude]
G  C  D  x2


[Verse 2]
G         C     D    G          C    D
Hillbilly blood, the river runs red
G             C      D      G        C     D
Finger on the trigger and a pound of lead
G              C  D G            C    D
Chopper in the air, searchin' my land
  G          C               D         C
A copperhead bites and don't give a goddamn


[Chorus]
G        C              D
 All the tongues at the tent revival
G     C               D
 Been spittin' in the devil's eye
G            C                D
 There ain't livin', there's just survival
G        C             D
 Doesn't matter if you do or die
    G      C  D       G      C   D
The way it is, is the way it was
G         C    D  G         C      D
Hillbilly blood,  hillbilly blood


[Interlude]
G  C  D  x2


[Verse 3]
G         C     D  G            C     D
Hillbilly blood,   thick as the night
G        C    D       G       C      D
Fog lays heavy on the morning light
G           C      D  G           C      D
Pike County sheriff   trackin' my scent
G      C          D        C
Nobody gonna know wherе he went


[Chorus]
G        C              D
 All the tongues at the tent revival
G     C               D
 Been spittin' in the devil's eye
G            C                D
 There ain't livin', there's just survival
G        C             D
 Doesn't matter if you do or die
        G      C  D       G      C   D
And the way it is, is the way it was
G         C    D  G         C      D
Hillbilly blood,  hillbilly blood
