Darlin Corey Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - Big John Khatt And The Highland Blues Band

[A]Wake up, wake up, darling Corey..
what makes you [G]sleep so [A]sound?
The revenue officers are [G]coming..
they're gonna [A]tear your [G]still-house [A]down.

#2.
[A]Well, the first time I seen darling Corey..
she was sitting by the [G]banks of the [A]sea.
Had a .44 strapped around her [G]body..
and a [A]five-string [G]banjo on her [A]knee.

#3.
[A]Go away, go away, darling Corey.
Quit hanging [G]around my [A]bed.
Your liquor has ruined my [G]body..
pretty [A]women [G]gone to my [A]head.

#4.
[A]Dig a hole, dig a hole, in the meadow.
Dig a hole in the [G]cold damp [A]ground.
Dig a hole, dig a hole, in the [G]meadow..
we're gonna [A]lay darling [G]Corey [A]down.

#5.
[A]Can't you hear them bluebirds a-singing?
Don't you hear that [G]mournful [A]sound?
[A]They're preaching darling Corey's [G]funeral..
in some [A]lonesome [G]graveyard [A]ground.

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
