pud marcums hangin

Intro 
G

G 
they say the grass won't grow where they built the gallows

C                G
down in lawrence county up on town hill


they hung poor pud marcum for the crime of murder

     C                   G               D                 G
back then they called it justice but the grass aint growin still

                                      
puds uncle fisher marcum he was feared and hated

C           G
many in the county wanted him dead


a bullet fired from ambush sent him to the graveyard

C                 G                 D              G
but not before he sent pud shockley from his dying bed

G 
they say the grass won't grow where they built the gallows

C                G
down in lawrence county up on town hill


they hung poor pud marcum for the crime of murder

     C                   G               D                 G
back then they called it justice but the grass aint growin still

G G C G G G C G D G

they tracked him through the snow to the place where he was hiding

C                    G                
a law man said throw up your hands your under arrest


in the jailhouse he found Jesus but the jury found him guilty

C                    G               D         G
and sentenced him to hang til he was dead dead dead

G 
they say the grass won't grow where they built the gallows

C                G
down in lawrence county up on town hill


they hung poor pud marcum for the crime of murder

     C                   G               D                 G
back then they called it justice but the grass aint growin still

early in the morning on the 29th of april 

C                    G
the sheriff came and led ol pud away


he had a peace about him as they neared the scaffold
 
C                   G             D                G
and he rode his own coffin up the hill to meet his fate


now my papaw told me a great big crowd was gathered

C                   G                        C    G
to see him meet his maker for taking fishers life


they say he told the young folks let this be your warning

C                   G       D           G
and left this world singing dark is the night


G 
they say the grass won't grow where they built the gallows

C                G
down in lawrence county up on town hill


they hung poor pud marcum for the crime of murder

     C                   G               D                 G
back then they called it justice but the grass aint growin still
