[Verse 1]
Em
They all laughed
G/E Bm/E
as he turned around slow
Em
They said you ain't welcome
round here anymore
G/E Bm/E
You just might as well go
Em
He wiped the blood from his face
G/E Bm/E
as he slowly came to his knees
Em
He said I’ll be back
when you least expect it
G/E Bm/E Em C
And hell's coming with me
G/E Bm/E Em G/E Bm/E
Hell's coming with me
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Am B7 N.C. Em
There is a hill
at the bottom of the valley
B7
Where all the poor souls go when they die
Em
And if you listen real close,
Am
you can hear ’em like a ghost
Em B7 Em
Saying you're never gonna make it out alive
B7 Em
[Verse 3]
Em
There is a town at the bottom of that hill
B7
They got a secret that they keep like a slave
Em
They got a black magic preacher,
Am
we'd do well to let him teach her
Em B7 Em
You'll be headed up that hill to the grave
[Chorus]
G B7
And it is well, with my soul
Em
You line your pockets full of money
C
that you steal from the poor
G
And on your way down the hill,
B7
you hear me ringing that bell
Em
I paid the devil twice
B7 Em
as much to keep your soul
[Verse 4]
Em Em
There was a drifter passing through
that little valley
B7
He had promised he was coming back to town
(Coming back to town)
Em
They didn't know him by his face,
Am
Or by the gun around his waist,
Em
but he'd come back to burn
B7 Em
that town to the ground
[Verse 5]
Em
First there was fire, then there was smoke
B7
Then that preacher man was hanging by a rope
Em
And then they all fell to their knees,
Am
and begged that drifter, begged him please
Em B7 Em
As he raised his fist before he spoke
[Bridge]
Em C B7
I am the righteous hand of God
Em C B7
And I am the devil that you forgot
G
And I told you one day you will see,
B7
that I'll be back, I guarantee
Em C
And that hell's coming, hell’s coming,
G B7 Em
hell, hell’s coming, with me
[Instrumental]
Em B7 Em B7
G B7 Em C
G B7 Em B7 Em
[Chorus]
G B7
And it is well, with my soul
Em
You line your pockets full of money
C
that you steal from the poor
G
And on your way down the hill,
B7
you hear me ringing that bell
G
And I say
B7 Em B7 Em
hell's coming with me
