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,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
I [E]met her on the mountain,
there I took her [F#m]life
Met her on the mountain,
stabbed her with my [E]knife
[E]Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[E]This time tomorrow,
reckon where I'll [F#m]be
Hadn't a-been for Grayson,
I'd a-been in Tennes[E]see
[E]Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[E]Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[E]This time tomorrow,
reckon where I'll [F#m]be
Down in some lonesome valley,
hangin' from a white oak [E]tree
[E]Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[E]Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
hang down your head and [F#m]cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,
poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[F#m]Poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[F#m]Poor boy, you're bound to [E]die
[F#m]Poor boy, you're bound to [E]die...
