Chords

[Verse]
D               
Underneath these boards

C                 D
Of this old cabin floor

G
In the hills

          F     D
way back in the woods
[Verse]
D                         
There is a sound the wind makes

C                  D
That my soul can’t take

G
Of this woman

F               D
and her cheating ways
[Verse]
D                 
In the hot summer heat

C                   D
I can hear her chest beat

G
But no I could

F             D
Never forgive her
[Verse]
D                         
On that day that I caught them

C                        D
Should have landed me in Folsom

 G
Cause the rage

     F         D
Ran through my veins
[Chorus]
C                D
Now my tell tale heart

C                     D
Won't you let me lay down

G
Feed me whiskey

        C         D
To drown out the sound

C               D
Now my tell tale heart

C                   D
Won't you let me go free

G
Feed me whiskey

C               D
And just let me be

C               D
Oh my tell tale heart
[Verse]
D                   
Cause even though I tried

C                  D
All I could do was cry

      G
So I waited

     F              D
Until the time was right
[Verse]
D                      
When that black day was here

C                          D
I said baby I love you my dear

        G
But I have to take

F          D
away your life
[Verse]
D               
I pulled out the gun

C            D
We were only 21

 G
Now her ghost

F            D
Haunts me at night
[Verse]
D                    
So I pulled back the boards

C                  D
Of this old cabin floor

 G          F
Under this house

            D
Is where she lies
[Chorus]
C                D
Now my tell tale heart

C                     D
Won't you let me lay down

G
Feed me whiskey

        C         D
To drown out the sound

C               D
Now my tell tale heart

C                   D
Won't you let me go free

G
Feed me whiskey

C               D
And just let me be

C               D
Oh my tell tale heart
