NC I asked my C love to take a G walk
To take a G7 walk just a little C walk
Down beC7side where the waters F flow
Down by the C banks G7 of the OhiCo
NC And only C say that you'll be G mine
In no G7 others' arms enCtwine
Down beC7side where the waters F flow
Down by the C banks G7 of the OhiCo
NC I held a C knife against his G breast
As inG7to my arms he C pressed
He cried my C7 love don't you murder F me
I'm not preCpared G7 for eterniCty
NC And only C say that you'll be G mine
In no G7 others' arms enCtwine
Down beC7side where the waters F flow
Down by the C banks G7 of the OhiCo
NC I wandered C home 'tween twelve and G one
I cried my G7 God what have I C done
I've killed the C7 only man I F love
He would not C take me G7 for his C bride
NC And only C say that you'll be G mine
In no G7 others' arms enCtwine
Down beC7side where the waters F flow
Down by the C banks G7 of the OhiCo
F Down by the C banks G7 of the OhiCo
