[D]
I ask my love to take [A] a walk, just a walk, just a little [D] ways, down the side where [G] [D]
[A] the
[D]
[G] waters flow, down [D] by the banks of the Ohio.
I held my life against [A] her breast, as into
my [D] arms she pressed.
She cried, oh Willie, don't [G] murder me.
I'm not [D] prepared for eternity.
And only say that [A] you'll be mine, in no arm [D] been twined, down the side where the [G] waters
flow, [Gm] down [D] by the banks of the Ohio.
[A]
[D]
[G] [D]
I started home, green twelve [A] and one.
I cried, my God,
what have [D] I done?
I feel the only woman [G] I love, because [D] she would [A] not be [D] my bride.
And only say
that [A] you'll be mine, in no other arm [D] been twined, down the side where the [G] waters flow, down [D] by the
banks of the Ohio.
