Banks Of The Ohio

Tom : A
A E
I asked my love to take a walk
E A
Just to walk, a little ways
A D
And as we walked, then we could talk
A E A
About our future wedding day
N.C
But when she said, she could never be mine
A E
I held a knife against her breast
E A
As into my arms she pressed
A D
She cried "my love, don't you murder me
A E A
I'm not prepared for eternity"
N.C A E
Then only say that you'll be mine

[Refrão]
E A
And in no others' arms entwine
A E
Down beside where the waters flow
A E A
Down by the Banks of the Ohio

[Próxima Parte]
N.C A E
I started home 'twixt twelve and one
E A
I cried, "My God, what have I done?"
A D
I've killed the one I love tonight
A E A
Because she would not be my bride
N.C
Well only say that you'll be mine

[Refrão] (repetir)

Down by the Banks of the Ohio
A E D
Save my soul lord
Save my soul
There beside where the waters flow
Down by the Banks of the Ohio
