I ask my love to take a [G] walk, take a walk, just a little [C] walk
down the side where the [F] waters flow, down [C] by the banks [G] of the [C] Ohio
And only say that [G] you'll be mine in no odd
[C] twine
down the side where the waters [F] flow, down by [C] the banks [G] of the [C] Ohio
I held a knife against [G] his breast, as into my arms [C] he pressed
He cried my love, don't you murder [F] me, I'm not [C] prepared
[G] for [C] eternity
And only say [G] that you'll be mine in no odd [C] twine
down the side where the [F] waters flow, down by [C] the banks
[G] of the [C] Ohio
I wondered between twelve [G] and one, I cried my God, what have [C] I done
I've killed the oath
[F]
he would not [C] take me
[G] for his [C] bride
And only say that you'll [G] be mine in no odd [C] twine
down the side where the waters [F]
flow, down by [C] the [G] banks of the [C] Ohio
[F] [C]
[G] [C]
down the side where the [F] waters flow, down [C] by the banks [G] of the [C] Ohio
And only say that [G] you'll be mine in no odd
[C] twine
down the side where the waters [F] flow, down by [C] the banks [G] of the [C] Ohio
I held a knife against [G] his breast, as into my arms [C] he pressed
He cried my love, don't you murder [F] me, I'm not [C] prepared
[G] for [C] eternity
And only say [G] that you'll be mine in no odd [C] twine
down the side where the [F] waters flow, down by [C] the banks
[G] of the [C] Ohio
I wondered between twelve [G] and one, I cried my God, what have [C] I done
I've killed the oath
[F]
he would not [C] take me
[G] for his [C] bride
And only say that you'll [G] be mine in no odd [C] twine
