Tom Dooley (midi)

Throughout history there have been many songs written about

the eternal triangle. This next one tells the story of a Mr. Grayson,

a beautiful woman and a condemned man named Tom Dooley.

When the sun rises tomorrow, Tom Dooley must hang.

G

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley,

D

hang down your head and cry,

hang down your head, Tom Dooley,

D7 G

poor boy, you`re bound to die.

G D

1. I met her on the mountain, there I took her life,

D7 G

I met her on the mountain, stabbed her with my knife.

+ CHORUS

G D

2. This time tomorrow, reckon where I`ll be,

D7 G

if it hadn`t been for Grayson, I`d be in Tennessee.

+ CHORUS

G D

3. This time toworrow, reckon where I`ll be,

D7 G

in some lonely valley, hanging from a white oak-tree.

+ CHORUS

(Kingston Trio)
