Carroll County Accident (Porter Wagoner)

		
 G                                 D7  
Carroll County's pointed out as kind of square 
                                       G  
The biggest thing that happens is the county fair 
                                          D7  
I guess that's why it seemed like such a big event 
                                     G  
What we all call the Carroll County accident 
 
                                   D7  
The wreck was on the highway just inside the line 
                                   G  
Walter Browning lost his life and for a time 
                                       D7  
It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die 
                                      G  
But she lived long enough for her to testify 
 
                             D7  
Walter Browning was a happy married man 
                                   G  
And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand 
                                  D7  
But it was gone nobody knew just where it went 
                                  G  
He lost it in the Carroll County accident 
 
                         D7  
Mary Ellen testified he flagged her down 
                                          G  
Said he was sick and could she drive him into town 
                              D7  
No one even doubted what she said was true 
                                     G  
Cause she was well respected in the county too 
 
                                   D7  
I went down to see the wreck like all the rest 
                                       G  
The bloody seats the broken glass the tangled mess 
                                       D7  
But I found something no one else had even seen 
                                       G  
Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine 
 
                                 D7  
 А  little match box circled by a rubber band 
                                 G  
And inside the ring from Walter Browning's hand 
                                   D7  
It took awhile to figure out just what it meant 
                                    G  
The truth about the Carroll County accident 
 
                                     D7  
By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well 
                                     G  
And took a sacred oath that I would never tell 
                                    D7  
The truth about the Carroll County accident 
                                       G  
Cause the county ordered dad a marble monument 
   D7                               G  
I lost him in the Carroll County accident
