of the people of Kentucky.
Sitting in the sunshine
Sipping on the moonshine
In [B] Kentucky Hills
[E] Sat an old [A] man
With a fiddle in his [E] hand
They called him Fiddle and Bill
He never left the hillside
He was born there and died
In [B] Kentucky Hills
[E] This old [A] man
With a fiddle in his [E] hand
They called him [D] Fiddle and Bill
Oh, [A] I'm [E] Fiddle and Bill
Oh, through the day
You can hear him play
Through the valleys
And over the hill
Although he's gone
From his hillside home
Seems like a [B] hairy old stem
[A] Oh, time [E] for Fiddle and Bill

played more than cabbage
And little leather britches
And also [B] Katy Hill
[E] He could play a waltz [A] slow
And the blues down [E] low
He could make you feel
What he feels
One day I asked him
If he could read music
He looked at [B] me with a grin
[E] Said he tried one [A] time
To read an old [E] line
And never did [D] try it again
But it [E] just couldn't [E] comprehend
Oh, through the day
You can hear him play
Through the valleys
And over the hill
Although he's gone
From his hillside home
Seems like a hairy old [B] stem
[A] Oh, time [E] for Fiddle and Bill
