Banks Of The Ohio Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I think of y[G]ou[D][A][D]
I ask my love to take a [A]walk
Just do all the little [D]ways
On we walked and as we [G]talked
All [D]about our wedding [A]day[D]
Darling say that you'll be [A]mine
In our home we'll happily [D]live
Down beside where the waters [G]flow
Far on the [D]banks of the [A]Ohio[D]
I took her by the hand
[A]Led her down where the waters bou[D]nd
There I plunged her into drown
[G]I watched her as [D]she flo[A]ated dow[D]n
Oh darling say that you'll be [A]mine
In our home we'll happily [D]live
Down beside where the waters [G]flow
Are on the [D]banks of [A]the Ohio
[D][A][D][G][D]
[A][D]
I started home between 12 and [A]1
Crying, what have I [D]done?
I am murdered, dear girl, I [G]love
Because she [D]would not [A]be my [D]bride
Darling, say that you'll [A]mine
And our home will happily [D]be
Down beside where the waters [G]flow
Are on the [D]banks of [A]the Ohio[D]
Next morning was about a half a base[A]board
A high sheriff man knocked on my [D]door
Says young man, come go with [G]me
Down beside [D]the [A]deep blue sea[D]
Darling, say that you'll be [A]mine
In our home we'll happily [D]live
Now beside where the waters [G]flow
Are all the [D]banks of [A]the old Iowa
[D]O
