Cliff Eberhardt - Clementine



Intro:
G  D  G

Verse 1:

In a cavern, in a canyon
         D7
Excavating for a mine
    C      G
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
    D7       G
And his daughter Clementine

Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine


Verse 2:
     G
Light she was, like a feather
             D7
And her shoes were number nine
    C       G
Herring boxes without topses
    D7       G
Sandals were for Clementine


Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine


Verse 3:
     G
Drove she ducklings to the water
           D7
Every morning just at nine
    C       G
Hit her foot against a splinter
    D7       G
Fell into the foaming brine


Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine


Verse 4:
   G
Ruby lips above the water
             D7
Blowing bubbles soft and fine
   C       G
But alas, I was no swimmer
    D7      G
Neither was my Clementine


Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine


Verse 5:
   G
In a churchyard near the canyon
             D7
Where the myrtle doth entwine
      C        G
There grow rosies and some posies
   D7       G
Fertilized by Clementine


Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine


Chorus:
   G
Oh my darling, oh my darling
          D7
Oh my darling Clementine
    C        G
You are lost and gone forever
     D7      G
Dreadful sorry, Clementine
