Well, I remember very well
G
D
a tale my daddy used to tell
G
D

About old Simon Crutchfield and a friend
D
Bm
Now Mary was his pretty wife
G
D
And they loved every breath of life
G
Before they took ol'
A
D
Raleigh Harper in
Bm
Now Simon plowed and worked the fields
G
D
And Mary cooked their meals
G

A
And Raleigh kept an eye out on the play
D
Bm
Still no one knew just when this
G

episode came to an end
G

They only knew of Simon

Mary Crutchfield,

Get on your knees

and pray your soul be saved.

Simon Crutchfield's grave?
Bm
In the year of 1864,
G
D
a blizzard came across the moor,
G
D
A
and all the crops were sold out, the same.
D
Bm
And the only way to get to town
G
D
was a wagon road that wound around
G
Through the woods past
A
D
Simon Crutchfield's Grill
Now some folks say
Bm
G
that they lay there in peace
D
six months or more
G
D
A
Before an old fur trapper found their bones
D
A
Bm
He claimed they wrote their epitaph
G
D
On the skebbing board
G
Just as it reads today
A
D
Old Marble Stone
Bm
Mary Crutchfield
G
D
Here lies Mary Crutchfield,
G
D
cause she betrayed the love
A
that Simon gave.
Bm
G
D
Riley Harper, here lies Riley Harper,
G
D
cause he couldn't drive by

Simon Crutchfield's grave.
