Tuning: Standard
Capo: 1st fret

           A               D                 A
I killed another man today, it's hard to believe,
     E                                  A
That I lost count at thirty, and I've grown too numb to grieve.
      A                        D               A
The bottle helps me cope, when I lay down at night,
              E                               A
And when the dope rolls through my veins, it all fades out of sight.

  D
Hangman, Hangman,
  A
That's my stock and trade.
  E
Hangman, Hangman,
         A
Sending bad men to their grave.
     A
But who killed who? I ask myself,
 D              A
Time and time again.
          E

God have mercy on the soul,
         E7  A
Of this Hangman.

               A                            D         A
And there's a woman down the street, named Rosalie McFall,
           E                      A
She don't ask me any questions, when I come to call.
     A                        D                 A
Her body keeps me warm, her words are soft and kind,
      E                             A
She holds me in her arms, 'til the bad dreams leave my mind.

  D
Hangman, Hangman,
  A
That's my stock and trade.
  E
Hangman, Hangman,
         A
Sending bad men to their grave.
     A
But who killed who? I ask myself,
 D              A
Time and time again.
          E
God have mercy on the soul,
         E7  A
Of this Hangman.
