Intro:
G Cadd9

Verse:
G          Cadd9 G             Cadd9 G
By the banks of the river where the willows hang down
G          Em7 Cadd9          G Cadd9
And wild birds they warble with a low moaning sound
G      Em7 Cadd9           G Cadd9
Down in the hollow where the waters run cold
G          F    C/G          G
It was there I first listened to the lies that you told

Verse:
G         C G             C G
Now I lie on my back and I see your sweet face
      Em    C     G
The past I remember time can't erase
          Em    C          G   C G
And the letters you wrote me they were written in shame
           F     C/G       G  C G
And I know that your conscience still echoes my name

Verse:
G                C G              C G
Now if the ladies were blackbirds and the ladies were thrushes
         Em  C         G    C G
I’d lie there for hours in the chilly cold marshes
          Em    C        G   C G
If the ladies were squirrels with high bushy tails
        F    C/G        G   C G
I’d fill up my shotgun with rock salt and nails
        F    C/G        G   C G
