[Verse 1]
[G]Com[D]e m[G]y love, let's take a walk[D]
Just a little, ways [G]away
While we walk along we'll [C]talk
Talk [G]about [D]our wedding day[G]

[Verse 2]
Only [G]say that you'll [D]be mine
Then our home will happy [G]be
Down this side, where the waters [C]flow
Down on the [G]bank[D]s of t[G]he Ohio.

[Verse 3]
I drew my [G]knife across her [D]throat
And to my chest she gently [G]pressed
Oh, Willie, please don't you murder [C]me
For I'm un[G]prepared [D]to die, you[G] see

[Verse 4]
I took her [G]by her lily white [D]hands
And I let her down where
the water [G]stands
There I pushed her in to [C]drown
And I watched her [G]as [D]she floated dow[G]n

[Verse 5]
Only [G]say that you'll [D]be mine
Then our home will happy [G]be
Down this side, where the waters [C]flow
Down on the [G]bank[D]s of t[G]he Ohio.

[Verse 6]
That day, while [G]I was returning h[D]ome
Thinking Lord, what deed [G]I've done
I murdered the girl I love, [C]you see
Because she [G]would [D]not marry me[G]

[Verse 7]
Next day as [G]I was running h[D]ome
I met the sheriff standing in my [G]door
He said young man,
come with me and [C]go
Down to the [G]bank[D]s of t[G]he Ohio.

[Verse 8]
Only [G]say that you'll [D]be mine
Then our home will happy [G]be
Down this side, where the waters [C]flow
Down on the [G]bank[D]s of t[G]he Ohio.

[Verse 9]
Down on [G]the bank[G] s of the Ohio
