Lyrics of a song Lemonheads - Knoxville Girl

(verse 1)



   D

I met a little girl in Knoxville



   G                D

A town we all know well



      D

And every Sunday evening



    G                A 

Out in her home I'd dwell



     D

We decided to take an evening walk

 

 G                 D

About a mile from town



    D      

I picked a stick up off the ground



     G                    D

And beat that fair girl down





(Right here you go nuts all over the d chord for two bars)





(verse 2)



     D                                 G            D

She fell down on her bended knee for mercy she did cry



     D                                  G              A

"Oh Willy dear, don't kill me here, I'm unprepared to die."



     D                          G             D

She never spoke another word, I only beat her more.



   D                              G                 D

Until the ground around us, with all her blood did pour.



(Nuts on the D)





(verse 3)



   D                                G                   D

I took her by her golden curls and drug her round and round,



   D                                  G                       A

throwing(ed) her into the river that flows through Knoxville town.



    D                                     G                D

Go down, go down you Knoxville girl with dark and rolling eye.



    D                                        G            D

Go down, go down you Knoxville girl, you can never be my bride.



 D





(verse 4)



    D                             G           D

I headed back to Knoxville, got there about midnight.



    D                        G             A

My mother she was worried and woke up in a fright.



  D                                       G                D

Saying, "dear son what have you done to bloody your clothes so?"



   D                             G              D

I told my anxious mother I was bleeding out my nose.



 D





(verse 5)



   D                          G              D

I called for me a candle to light myself to bed.



   D                              G              A

I called for me a hankercheif to bind my aching head



  D                                             G              D

Rolled and tumbled the whole night through as troubles was for me



  D                              G                 D

Like flames of Hell around my bed and in my eyes could see



 D





(verse 6)



       D                               G           D 

They carried me down to Knoxville and put me in a cell



     D                                  G                A

My friends all tried to get me out but none could go my bail



     D                              G                  D  

I'm here to waste my life away down in this dirty old jail.



  D                                 

Because I murdered that Knoxville girl,



     G(once)

The girl I loved so



  D(once)
