[Intro]
Bm G D
[Verse 1]
Bm
I get here early, and I go home late
A E Bm
Lately, what seems like every day
Bm
I keep my head up till I stop to pray
A E Bm
At the top of the hill is a sacred place
Bm
But down in the valley is where I roam
A E Bm
With these faded memories and half-written songs
Bm
And just when it seems that nothing else could go wrong
A D
That's when I'm reminded we're not alone
[Chorus]
Bm
There's a devil in this holler
Bm
There's evil in these hills
Bm
I'm just trying to make a dollar 'cause I've got to pay my bills
Bm
There might be gold on this mountain, but there's fire on the ground
D E Bm G D Bm
Yeah, there's a devil in this holler, but he ain't gonna pull me down
[Verse 2]
Bm
Well, I throw my hand up when I'm driving in
A E Bm
Speak to the ones that ask me how I've been
Bm
By the time that I leave, I'm tired and in pain
A E Bm
I put the pedal to the floor on my way home to beat the train
Bm
I find my pride at the end of the day
A E
My kids and my bride are why I live this way
Bm
Hand in hand at the table
Bm
Thank God for one more night
A D N.C.
If I wake up in the morning, I'll be ready for the fight
[Chorus]
Bm
There's a devil in this holler
Bm
There's evil in these hills
Bm
I'm just trying to make a dollar 'cause I've got to pay my bills
Bm
There might be gold on this mountain, but there's fire on the ground
D E Bm
Yeah, there's a devil in this holler, but he ain't gonna pull me down
[Guitar Solo]
Bm D G Bm N.C.
[Chorus]
Bm
There's a devil in this holler
Bm
There's evil in these hills
Bm
I'm just trying to make a dollar 'cause I've got to pay my bills
Bm
There might be gold on this mountain, but there's fire on the ground
D E Bm
Yeah, there's a devil in this holler, but he ain't gonna pull me down
[Outro]

Yeah, there's a devil in this holler, but he ain't gonna pull me down
