Knoxville Girl
Pre>(verse 1)
D
I met a little girl in knoxville
G d
A town we all know well
D
And every sunday evening
G a
Out in her home I'd dwell
D
We decided to take an evening walk
G d
About a mile from town
D
I picked a stick up off the ground
G d
And beat that fair girl down
(right here you go nuts all over the d chord for two bars)
(verse 2)
D g d
She fell down on her bended knee for mercy she did cry
D g a
Oh willy dear, don't kill me here, I'm unprepared to die.
D g d
She never spoke another word, I only beat her more.
D g d
Until the ground around us, with all her blood did pour.
(nuts on the d)
(verse 3)
D g d
I took her by her golden curls and drug her round and round,
D g a
Throwing(ed) her into the river that flows through knoxville town.
D g d
Go down, go down you knoxville girl with dark and rolling eye.
D g d
Go down, go down you knoxville girl, you can never be my bride.
D
(verse 4)
D g d
I headed back to knoxville, got there about midnight.
D g a
My mother she was worried and woke up in a fright.
D g d
Saying, dear son what have you done to bloody your clothes so?
D g d
I told my anxious mother I was bleeding out my nose.
D
(verse 5)
D g d
I called for me a candle to light myself to bed.
D g a
I called for me a hankercheif to bind my aching head
D g d
Rolled and tumbled the whole night through as troubles was for me
D g d
Like flames of hell around my bed and in my eyes could see
D
(verse 6)
D g d
They carried me down to knoxville and put me in a cell
D g a
My friends all tried to get me out but none could go my bail
D g d
I'm here to waste my life away down in this dirty old jail.
D
Because I murdered that knoxville girl,
G(once)
The girl I loved so
D(once)
Well...
