[Db] [Ab]
[Db]
Down in the valley, [Ab]
valley so [Eb] low,
[Ab]
bang your head [Ebm] over [Ab] and hear [Db] the wind blow.
Can't you hear the wind blow, [Ab] my [Db] love?
[Ab] Can't [Db] you hear [Ab] the wind blow?
Down in the valley, valley [Db] so [Ab] low,
[Db] Have you ever been [Ab] lonely, [Db] lonely?
Have you ever [Ab] been sad?
[Ebm] Did you ever [Ab] really, really want someone
that [Eb] really [Ab] [Db] needed a better, better, better, better?
[Ab]
[Db] It was down in the valley, in the valley [Ab] so low,
It was where I held you so tight,
how could [Ebm] I ever [Db] let you go?
[B] I remember [Gb] the first kiss,
and oh, I [Db] said, oh, oh, oh, oh.
[Ab] Now [Db] I'm [Ab] walking deep right now,
just let a cold [Db] wind blow.
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down,
Down in [Ab] the valley, valley so low,
bang your head over and hear the [Db] wind blow.
[Ab] [Db] Can't you hear the wind blow?
[Ab] [Ebm]
