[G#] [C]
[F]
From this valley they say [C] you [F] are going.
We will miss your bright eyes and [C] sweet smile.
[A#] [C] For [F] they say you are taking [A#] the sunshine
[F] That brightens [C] our pathway [F] awhile.
Won't you think of the [C] valley [F] you're leaving?
Oh, how lonely, how sad [C] it will be.
Oh, [F] think of the fond heart [A#] you're breaking
And [F] the grief you [C] are causing me [F] to see.
[C#] As [F#] you go to your [C#] home by [F#] the ocean
May you never forget, oh [C#] sweetheart
That [F#] we spent in the Red [B] River Valley
And [F#] the love [C#] we exchanged [F#] amid the flowers.
[D#m] [C#]
[F#]
[D] Come [G] and sit by my [D] side [G] if you love me
Do not hasten to bid [D] me adieu.
But [G] remember the Red [C] River Valley
[G] And the boy [D] that has loved you [G] so true
Oh, remember the Red [C] River Valley
And [G] the boy that [D] has loved you [G] so true.
[Gm] [G]
