G                                                        D7
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry.
               Am        D7      Am              D7       G
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, poor boy you're bound to die

  G                                             D7
I met her on the mountain, and there I took her live,
                              Am          D7      G
I met her on the mountain and stabbed her with my knife

G                                                        D7
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry.
               Am        D7      Am              D7       G
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, poor boy you're bound to die

G                                         D7
And this time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be,
                                  Am      D7    G
if I hadn't been for Grayson, I'd been in Tennessee.

G                                                        D7
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry.

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, poor boy you're bound to die

G                                         D7
And this time tomorrow, reckon where I'll be,
                             Am         D7        G
in some lonesome valley, a'hangimg on a white oak tree.

G                                                        D7
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, hang down your head and cry.

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley, poor boy you're bound to die
