Three Men Hanging Murder by Death
Quite a bit of this song is written for banjo and a little piano (I think) but I think
sound pretty good on the guitar for chords. Please leave any questions, comment, or
changes in a comment or something.
Intro: Bm A Bm A Em G6 Bm Asus2
[Bm]Get on with [Asus2]it
[Bm]put off the fuss you chicken[Asus2]sh*t
[Bm]get on with [Asus2]it
[Bm]can't you see its time to [Asus2]quit
[Bm]I seen three men hangin' from a sycamore
[Asus2]their bodies were stiff as a two by four
[Em]and t[Bm]heir heads were tilted down towards the [Asus2]ground
[Bm]and it ain't been long since they been up there
[Asus2]that their bodies turned cold hangin' in that air
[Bm]and they might have froze before that noose got to [Asus2]them
Interlude: Bm Asus2 Bm Asus2 Em G6 Asus2
[Bm]Get on with [Asus2]it
[Bm]put off the fuss you chicken[Asus2]sh*t
[Bm]get on with [Asus2]it
[Bm]can't you see its time to [Asus2]quit
[Bm]old scratch has dealt us a dirty hand
[Asus2]he had the look of a saint but the greed of a man
[Bm]and his face was worn and wrinkled like a leather [Asus2]book
and if i put t[Bm]his revolver to my head
[Asus2]will god turn against me instead of [Bm]taking pity on a broken [Asus2]man?
[Bm]get on with i[Asus2]t. (X 4)
