D 
I never read it in a book 
 
I never saw it on a show 
                                      
but I heard it in the country 
      C        G   D 
on my pick-up  radio 
       D                     A\G     
if you want a drink of water 
           D 
you got to get it from a well 
                             A\G 
if you want to get to heaven 
           C               C#             D 
you got to raise a little, raise a little hell 
 
 
D 
I never felt it in my feet 
 
I never felt it in my soul 
                                    
I've been called county 
          C      G      D 
I've been called rock & roll 
       D                    A\G 
if you want to know a secret 
           D                   
you got to promise not to tell 
                            A\G 
if you want to get to heaven 
           C               C#             D 
you got to raise a little, raise a little hell

I never thought it'd be so easy 
 
never thought it'd be so fun 
 
but I heard it in the country 
      C      G      D 
now I got it on the run 
       D                    A\G 
if you want to see an angel 
           D 
you got to find it where it fell 
                            A\G 
if you want to get to heaven 
           C               C#             D 
you got to raise a little, raise a little hell 
                            A\G 
if you want to get to heaven 
           C               C#             D 
you got to raise a little, raise a little hell
