Knoxville Girl taby ukulele według [traditional]

[Intro]
F x8  3/4 time
[Verse 1]
F                                Bb              F
I met a little girl in Knoxville down beyond the well
F                            G              C
And every Sunday evenin' out in her home I dwelled
   F                            Bb                F
We went to take an evenin' walk about a mile from town
                                       C                      F
I picked a stick up off the ground and knocked that fair girl down
                                      Bb            F
She fell down on her bended knees for mercy she did cry
                                        G             C
"Oh Willard dear don't kill me here I'm unprepared to die
     F                                Bb       F
"She never spoke another word, I only beat her more
                                C                F
Until the ground around me with it her blood did flow

[Verse 2]
  F                                Bb                 F      
I took her by her golden curls and drug her round and round
                                 G                       C
Throwing her into the river that flows through Knoxville town
   F                                    Bb               F
Go down go down you Knoxville girl with dark and rollin' eyes
                                           C           F
Go down go down you Knoxville girl you can never be my bride

[Verse 3]
F                                               Bb            F
I Rolled and tumbled the whole night through my dreams were living hell
                                     G           C
And then they came from Knoxville to carry me to jail
    F                                       Bb        F
I‘m here to waste my life away down in this dirty old cell
F                                           C               F
Because I murdered that Knoxville girl, the girl I loved so well!
