Song: Eli Renfro Tab
G F
Eli Renfro killed his wife
C G
With a long sharp bowie knife
C D G
Hacked her up and put her in the ground
G F
Death by hanging was to be his fate
C G
And old Eli filled with hate
C D
Put a curse on the entire town
Chorus:
G F
Can't you hear, can't you hear
C G
When the moon is bright and clear
G
From time to time
G F
It's old Eli dragging chains
C D
And moaning peoples names
G F C G
And I hope and I pray that he never thinks of mine
I was walking the high road late last night
The stars were out and the moon was bright
The wind was blowing you could hear for half a mile
Then an awful sound came through the trees
It chilled my blood and it shook my knees
The kinda thing that makes a man run wild
[ Chorus ]
Well if you get home before I do
Don't look back cause I'm coming through
I'm packing my things and I'm headed far away
They say you can't run away from a curse
Maybe this time I'll be the first
Ain't nobody here gonna make me stay
Chorus -
(repeat: and I hope and I pray he never thinks of mine)
