[D] [G]
[C] [G]
It's another morning, another motel bed, and another city waiting up ahead.
[Em] Light another mantel to clear my [Gm] mind.
[G]
Of all those memories I pretend to forget,
cause I always want to live without regrets, but
yeah, I [C] still think of her [G] from time to time.
And if she's still living [C] across the Harlan [G] County line.
[C] [G]
Now when we met we were both living far from home,
trying to get by and tired of being alone.
[Fm] [C] And for a moment I thought she [Gm] was mine,
[C] [G] cause she had a voice I just wanted to believe.
She said her mother was full blood Cherokee,
and her daddy was a [C] union man down [G] in the mines.
And he was fighting the good fight [C] across the Harlan [G] County line.

Now people can be noble and people can be cruel,
[Dm]
they'll [G] make you president or they'll make you a fool,
but she always [C] treated me nice [G] and kind.
[Eb] [Gm]
[G] Until that day she left me on my own,
[Dm] and said there was some trouble she [G] had to handle back [C] home.
But she gave me a number and said, call [G] anytime,
if I [C] ever made it across the Harlan [G] County line.

Now the years disappear out on the highway,

so I say a little prayer [Gm] that she's doing fine.
[Cm]
[G] Now it's another morning, another motel bed,
and another city waiting up ahead,
and another small memory to leave behind,
[F] somewhere [Em] across the Harlan [G] County line.
[Dm]
[G] [C]
[Gm] [G]
Across the [Gm] Harlan County line.
