I don't have one of those fancy 'edit' buttons, but I can do cut and paste, so here's the song with line breaks. If you want to find out how to do this, go to the HTML thread.

Chitlin Cookin' Time in Cheatham County.

[Em] There's a quiet and peaceful county in sunny Tennes[Am]see.
You'll [Em]find it in the book they call geo[B7]gra[Em]phy.
Not noted for it's farmin', minin' or it's [Am]stills,
but they [Em]know their chitlin cookin' in those Cheatham [B7] County [Em]hills.

BRIDGE
When it's [Em]chitlin' cookin' time in Cheatham County
I'll be courtin' in those Cheatham County [Am]hills,
and I'll [Em]take a Cheatham County chitlin cooker
for I've a longin' that a [B7]mess of chitlin [Em]fills

2. There's art in chitlin cookin', and all good chitlin cooks
must master it by practice it aint wrote down in books.
In the hills of Cheatham County, in sunny Tennessee,
when the chitlins are in season that's where I want to be.

BRIDGE. SORT OF SECOND BRIDGE, I GUESS.
Well if [Em]all good things would be to me
I think that chitlins are the [Am]best,
and when I [Em]press my [C]dyin' [Em]pillow[C]
[C]let a [Em]chitlin be my [B7]last re[Em]quest.

BRIDGE AGAIN.
