Tom Dooley

- Bluegrass

Intro: 
Throughout history ... 
There've 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 ... 
 
Ref: 
G                                                        D7 
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry. 
                                                            G 
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, poor boy, you're bound to die.

G                                           D7 
I met her on the mountain, there I took her life. 
                                             G 
Met her on the mountain, stabbed her with my knife.

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, …

This time tomorrow morning, reckon where I'll be. 
Hadn't a-been for Grayson, I'd a-been in Tennessee.

This time tomorrow morning, reckon where I'll be. 
Down in some lonesome valley, hangin' from a white oak tree.
