Well,[C] marry me[E7]
To a[Am] rope and a t[F]ree
[C]What that ol' [E7]judge called first degree[C]
And all the [C]folks around [E7]town
Swore to[Am] lay me
In the[F] ground

[VERSE 2]
You see [C]I
Did not much[E7] care
For the[Am] way

His eyes for [G]good

So,[C] gonna lay my poor [E7]bones
Pas[Am]t Appalachian stones[F]
[C]Far beneath that [G]cold ground all alone[C]

It was w[C]orth it
To see that [G]boy
Cut from the knees[C]
