C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
I asked my love to take a walk To take a walk, just a little walk
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio
C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
And only say that you'll be mine In no others' arms entwine
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio
C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
I held a knife against his breast As into my arms he pressed
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
He cried "my love, don't you murder me I'm not prepared for eternity
C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
And only say that you'll be mine In no others' arms entwine
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio
C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
I wandered home between twelve and one I cried, "My God, what have I done?"
E minorEm FF G+G C majorC
I've killed the only man I love He would not take me for his bride
C majorC G+G G7G7 C majorC
And only say that you'll be mine In no others' arms entwine Down beside
E minorEm FF C majorC G+G C majorC
where the waters flow Down by the banks of the Ohio Down by the banks of the Ohio
