[Intro]
E
B7Throughout history
There have been many songs written
About the eternal triangle
This next one tells the story of a Mister EGrayson
A beautiful woman
And a condemned man named Tom Dooley
B7 When the sun rises tomorrow
Tom Dooley must hang E

EHang down your head, Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and B7cry
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you're bound to die E
[Verse 1]
I Emet her on the mountain
There I took her life B7

Hangin' from a white oak tree E
