(chorus)
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D                  C
Wouldn't mind the hanging
        E7                  Am
But the laying in the grave so long
Poor boy
F-            G-          D
I've been all around this world

(verse 1)
D                             C
I've been all around Cape Girardeau
G             D
Parts of Arkansas
D                   C
All around Cape Girardeau
G             D
Parts of Arkansas
D              C
Got so goddamn hungry
        E7            Am
I could hide behind a straw
Poor boy
F-            G-           D
I've been all around this world

(verse 2)
D            C
Went up on a mountain
G               D
There I made my stand
D            C
Went up on a mountain
G               D
There I made my stand
D           C
Rifle on my shoulder
      E7            Am
And a dagger in my hand
Poor boy
F-           G-           D
I've been all around this world

(chorus)
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D                  C
Wouldn't mind the hanging
        E7                  Am
But the laying in the grave so long
Poor boy
F-            G-          D
I've been all around this world

(verse 3)
D               C
Put the rope around my neck
G             D
Hung me up so high
D               C
Put the rope around my neck
G             D
Hung me up so high
D            C
Last words I heard him say:
E7                     Am
Won't be long now 'fore you die
Poor boy
F-            G-          D
I've been all around this world

(chorus)
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D          C
Hang me oh hang me
G                D
I'll be dead and gone
D                  C
Wouldn't mind the hanging
        E7                  Am
But the laying in the grave so long
Poor boy
F-            G-          D
I've been all around this world
