Flatt & Scruggs - Nine Pound Hammer Chords

Nine Pound Hammer
Flatt & Scruggs


Capo 2

                E
This nine pound hammer
                A
Is a little too heavy
            E
It’s for my size
B7            E
Honey, for my size


Chorus:
   E 
Oh buddy
                  A
Don't you roll so slow
                E
Baby, how can I roll
B7                    E
When the wheels won't go


I'm going on a mountain
Gonna see my baby
But I ain't coming back
Lord I ain't coming back

Chorus

It’s a long way to Hazzard
And a long way to Harlen
Just to get a little brew
Just to get a little brew

Chorus

Now when I’m long gone
You can make my tombstone
Out of number 9 coal
Out of number nine coal

Chorus
