[Verse 1]
           Am
Well the raven is a wicked bird
    G                  Am
His wings are black as sin
And he floats outside my prison window
G              Am
 Mocking those within
       C                Dm
And he sings to me real low
     G                C
It's hell to where you go
    Am                          G
For you did murder Kate McCannon

[Verse 2]
Am     Am
  When I first met Tom McCannon
     G               Am
I was working in the mines
Said he had himself a dark haired daughter
G                Am
 With long, green  eyes
         C             Dm
And when she and I did meet
        G              C
She was bathing in the creek
Am
Prettiest girl in the whole damn holler
G
 That ain't no lie

[Break]

[Verse 3]
    Am
So I  went a courtin' Kate McCannon
G Am
    Got me a job and I quit my ramblin'
G Am    C             Dm
    And every day I'd save
  G            C
A quarter of my pay
Am
I could buy a diamond ring

[Verse 4]
G Am         Am
    Lord and one day I come home to find
G Am
    My darlin' angel's not inside
G Am   C
    So I made for the creek
Dm      G            C
  Where she and I did meet
    Am                             G Am
And found her with some other lover

[Outro]
Am         Am                               G Am G Am G Am G Am G Am G
  And I put  three rounds into Kate McCannon

[Fade Out]
