G Em G
Am G F
[Verse]
Am G F
Knoxville girl, Knoxville girl
Am G F
Knoxville girl, Knoxville girl
Am G F
I passed your ghost on the old northern ridge
Am G F
You was wearing them same far away forever eyes
Am G F
You was giving that same far away forever smile
[Chorus]
Am G F
Oh mercy
Am G F
Oh mercy
[Solo]
G Em G x2
[Verse]
Am G
The tragedy is the un-given love
F
Goin’ arm and arm with the all above
[Chorus]
Am G F
Oh mercy
Am G F
Oh mercy
[Verse]
Am G F
Then up comes the Knoxville girl
Am G F
Half the way cross the old north bridge
Am
She takes my hand and says
G F
Darlin’ let’s see how far away we get
[Chorus]
Am G F
From mercy
Am G F
From mercy
