This isn't the way John Paul plays it but it still works well and is an easier version :)

Capo on 1st fret

Strumming pattern: intro - D D U D U, verse - just straight downbeats to the rhythm

If you need help with the beats and guitar slaps in the second verse just listen to the song and you'll
catch on pretty quickly.

Intro: Em

Em7
Oh the grass is green
Everywhere but under me
Or so it seems

Em7
Got a wedding band
In the name of a wandering man
Who I love the best I can

B7
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
A
'Cause everybody's been sayin
E
You been runnin' around
B7
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
A
Don't you know that we don't need
E
One more grave in this town

Em

Em7 (once, let ring) (two percussive guitar slaps)
Boy if you're smart
Em7
You'll know you'll only have my heart
'Til death do us part

Em7
Oh you and I both know
That at the end of that forbidden road
There's a six-foot hole

B7
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
A
'Cause everybody's been sayin
Em
You been runnin' around
B7
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
A
Don't you know that we don't need
Em
One more grave in this town

Am (once, let ring)
When we wed, we said forever ever and a day
Em (once, let ring)
The whole town heard you promise to be true
Am Em
So boy you're gonna only give your gypsy heart to me
B7
If it's the last thing you do

Em
Oooh
Oooh, oooh

B7
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
A
'Cause everybody's been sayin
Em
You been runnin' around
B7
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
A
Don't you know that we don't need
Em
One more grave in this town
Em (hold last note while playing intro strumming pattern again)
Oh one more grave in this town
