Tom Dooley chords
The Kingston Trio (North Carolina folk song, first recording by Grayson / Whitter)
Throughout history there've been many songs written about the eternal triangle.
This next one tells the story of a Ms. Grayson, a beautiful woman, and a condemned man
named Tom Dooley. When the sun rises tomorrow, Tom Dooley, must hang
E
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
F#m
hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
E
poor boy, you're bound to die
E
I met her on the mountain,
F#m
there I took her life
Met her on the mountain,
E
stabbed her with my knife
E
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
F#m
hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
E
poor boy, you're bound to die
E
This time tomorrow,
F#m
reckon where I'll be

hangin' from a white oak tree
E
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
F#m
hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
E
poor boy, you're bound to die
E
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
