Hangman Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I killed another man today,
[C]it's hard [G]to believe
[D]Well I lost count at thirty and I've
[C]grown to numb to [G]grieve
The bottle helps me cope,
when [C]I lay down [G]at night
And when the [D]dope rolls through my veins,
it [C]all fades [G]out of sight.
[F]Hangman, hangman,
[Bb]that's my stock [F]and trade
[C]Hangman, hangman,
sending [Bb]bad men to t[F]heir graves
Well who killed who, I ask myself,
[Bb]time and time [F]again
God have [C]mercy on the soul of [Bb]this
hang[F]man[G][Bb][F]
[C][Bb][G]
There's a woman down the street,
named [C]Rosalie [G]McFall
She don't [D]ask me any questions,
[C]when I come [G]to call
Her body keeps me warm,
her [C]words are soft [G]and kind.
She [D]holds me in her arms till the
[C]bad dreams leave [G]my mind
[F]Hangman, hangman,
[Bb]that's my stock [F]and trade
[C]Hangman, hangman,
sending [Bb]bad men to t[F]heir graves
Well, who killed who, I ask myself,
[Bb]time and time [F]again
God have [C]mercy on the soul
of [Bb]this hang[F]man
God have [C]mercy on the soul of this [Bb]hangman
