Billy Strings "Tom Dooley"  Doc Watson Set chords
Start Jamming...
You know, the Watson family really carried a lot of songs.
You know, songs, [E]
[Em] they really are a [G#m] way to tell stories and learn about maybe the area
that you live in or learn about your ancestors or stuff like that.
And, [G#] you know, music really is such a [G#] sacred, [G#m] beautiful thing.
It used to be a way to pass stories and stuff like that, but [F]
lots of people [G#] with business
ties and stuff [B]
like to just kind of [D#] exploit the music and make a bunch of [F] bullshit to
play on the radio.
[E] I'm just rambling right now, but
[C#] [B] basically [D#] what I'm saying is [D#] Doc and his family used
to [F] tell stories about real stuff that really happened.
There's a story about this fella, Tom Dula, that they hang [G#m] him because they thought he
killed his [B] girlfriend, Laura [F] Foster, but apparently he did not or something like that.
But, you know, it's a true story and it's just kind of cool that these kind of things [D#] exist.
[G#m] You know, I wouldn't know about this fella if it weren't [F] for this song, really.
But it's an interesting [B] story.
You know, [F] Doc Watson had so many songs that were about stuff that happened in North Carolina,
which I think is [B] just really neat.
[D#]
But here's Tom Dula anyways.
One, two, three, [B] four.
Here we go.
