[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Daniel Boone cut his way into Kentucky D A D Indians call that place the dark and bloody ground D They opened up the wilderness with courage D A D Celebrated with an ol' hoe down
[Verse 2]
D I grew up in the shadow of the mountains D A D Where the creeks ran clear and the nine pound hammer swings D My folks taught me to have pride in ol' Kentucky D A D And it wells inside me every time I sing
[Chorus]
G I hear the sound of horse's hooves G McCoy 'n' Hatfield mountain feuds G D The bluegrass music, that's Kentucky thunder G I hear the rumble from the mines G Up dark hollers the moon still shines G A C G A Sweet Kentucky girls are still the wonder D Lord and when I die, that's where I want to lie G A Bm G Until ol' Gable blows his final number A And it rolls across the sky like D Kentucky thunder
G A D
[Verse 3]
D My music carried me far from that ol' home place D A D But my roots always ran to that rocky soil D Aw you can take the boy from ol' Kentucky D A D But you can't take Kentucky from the boy
[Chorus]
G I hear the sound of horse's hooves G McCoy 'n' Hatfield mountain feuds G D The bluegrass music, that's Kentucky thunder G I hear the rumble from the mines G Up dark hollers the moon still shines G A C G A Sweet Kentucky girls are still the wonder D Lord and when I die, that's where I want to lie G A Bm G Until ol' Gable blows his final number A And it rolls across the sky like D Kentucky thunder (repeat 4x, hold on last)
