Verse 1
(D minor) Well, I'll be gone
these lonesome days
I'll return again, here's what I say
(D major) Go (D minor) dig my grave, both wide and deep.
Place a marble stone at
my head and my feet.
Oh Lord, oh Lord, (G major) (D minor) oh Lord, hear me.
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, hear me.
(D major) She went up (D minor) stairs to make her bed (D major)
And (D minor) not one word to her mama said (D major)
Her mama (D minor) she went upstairs (D major) (A major) to
(D major) Says (D minor) daughter,
oh daughter, what troubles
Oh mama (G major) (D minor) dear, I cannot tell
That railroad boy I love so well
He courted (D major) me (D minor) my life away
And now with me he will not stay
Oh (D major) (D minor) Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lordy me.
Oh Lord, Oh Lord,
Oh Lordy me. (D major) (D minor) (D major) (D minor) (D major)
(D minor) Her papa, he come home from work (D major)
Says, (D minor) where's my daughter,
she seems so hurt
He went (D major) up (D minor) stairs
just to give her hope
An (D major) d he (D minor) found her hanging from a rope
O Lord, O Lord, O Lord (G major) (D minor) in me
O Lord, O Lord, O Lord in me (D major) (D minor)
(D major) Well, took his (D minor) (D major) knife (D minor)
and he cut her down
And in her bosom these words he found
Oh, (D major) dig my grave (D minor) both
wide and deep
Place (A major) (D minor) a marble stone at
my head and my (D major) feet
And on my (D minor) breast place a
snow white dove (D major)
(D minor) To (D major) tell (D minor) this world I died for love (D major)
Oh (D minor) lord, oh lord, oh lordy me
Oh (D major) (D minor) (A major) (D minor) lord, (D major) (D minor) oh lord,
(G major) (D minor) oh lordy (D major) me
