Lyrics
(Bb)Hang down your (Eb)head, Tom (Bb)Dooley,
hang down your head and (F7)cry.
You killed poor Laura Foster, poor boy,
you're going to (Bb)die.
I met her (Eb)on the (Bb)mountain and there I took her (F7)life.
I met her on the mountain,
and I stabbed her with my (Bb)knife.
Hang down your (Eb)head, Tom (Bb)Dooley,
hang down your head and (F7)cry.
You killed poor Laura Foster, poor boy,
you're going to (Bb)die.
I This her (Eb)time (Bb)tomorrow, and reckon where I'll (F7)be?
I In some lonesome valley, and ahang on white oak (Bb)knife.
tree. Hang down your (Eb)head, Tom (Bb)Dooley,
hang down your head and (F7)cry.
You killed poor Laura Foster, poor boy,
you're going to (Bb)die.
