Key: Em
[Intro]
Em Em Em Em x4
[Verse]
Em G Em
Way down south in a Kentuck' town
G Em
Where all of the stubble fields grow
G Em
One boy did rise with the devil in his eyes
G Em
Whose heart was dark as Westfield coal
G Em
Heart was dark as Westfield coal
Em G Em
Roderick Ferrell and the Wendorf girl
G Em
Knelt down upon a darkened grave
G Em
He drew his dagger down and the red ran to the ground
G Em
And they licked along the bloody blade
G Em
Licked along the bloody blade
[Chorus]
Em G Em
Blood-red blood on the blue, blue grass
Bm Em
It cries from hallowed hunting ground
G Em
'Twas the midnight curse of that bloody black patch
Bm Em
That took another poor boy down
G Em
Took another poor boy down
[Solo]

[Verse]
Em G Em
Ridin' in the night down to F-L-A
G Em
To bid her folks a foul farewell
G Em
With his claw hammer high he drew their spirits nigh
G Em
And danced amidst the crimson spray
G Em
Danced amidst the crimson spray
[Chorus]
Em G Em
Blood-red blood on the blue, blue grass
Bm Em
It cries from hallowed hunting ground
G Em
'Twas the midnight curse of that bloody black patch
Bm Em
That took another poor boy down
G Em
Took another poor boy down
[Solo]

[Verse]
Em G Em
Take heed all ye motherless children so lost
G Em
Dwell not in the caves of your mind
G Em
Roderick Ferrell's trail of sin did lead him his to his end
G Em
But bloody fields blossom blue in time
G Em
Bloody fields blossom blue in time
[Chorus]
Em G Em
Blood-red blood on the blue, blue grass
Bm Em
It cries from hallowed hunting ground
G Em
'Twas the midnight curse of that bloody black patch
Bm Em
That took another poor boy down
G Em
Took another poor boy down
Bm Em
Yes it took another poor boy down
