Kate Mccannon

Am
Well the raven is a wicked bird
    G                  Am
His wings are black as sin
Am
And he floats outside my prison window
G                 Am
Mocking those within
       C                Dm
And he sings to me real low
     G                 C  G  C
It's hell to where you go
    Am                          G  Am
For you did murder Kate McCannon

( Am  G  Am  Am  G  Am )

Am
When I first met TomMcCannon
      G              Am
I was working in the mines
        Am
Said he had himself a dark haired daughter

     G           Am
With long, green eyes
     C             Dm
When she and I did meet
        G              C  G  C
She was bathing in the creek
Am
Prettiest girl in the whole damn holler
G
That ain't no lie

( Am  G  Am  Am  G  Am )

Am                                 G  Am
So I went a courtin' Kate McCannon
Am                                 G  Am
Got me a job and I quit my ramblin'
    C             Dm
And every day I'd save
  G             C  G  C
A quarter of my pay
Am                         G  Am
I could buy a diamond ring

Am                                  G  Am
Lord and one day I come home to find
Am                           G  Am
My darlin' angel's not inside
   C              Dm
So I made for the creek
      G             C  G  C
Where she and I did meet
    Am                              G  Am
And found her with some other lover

( Am  Am  Am  Am )

Am                                          G  Am
And I put three rounds into Kate McCannon

[Final]  Am  G  Am  Am  G  Am  C  Dm  G  C  G  C  Am  G  Am
