[C]Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and [G7]cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]die


I [C]met her on the mountain
And there I took her [G7]life
Met her on the mountain
Stabbed her with my [C]knife


[C]Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and [G7]cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]die


[C]This time tomorrow
Reckon' where I'll [G7]be
Hadn't have been for Grayson
I'd have been in Tennes-[C]see 


[C]Hang down your head Tom Dooley 
Hang down your head and [G7]cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]die


[C]This time tomorrow
Reckon' where I'll [G7]be
Down in some lonesome valley
Hangin' from a wide oak [C]tree


[C]Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and [G7]cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]die


[C]Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and [G7]cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]die
[G7]Poor boy, you’re bound to [C]↓ die
