G D7 G
From this valley thay say, You are leaving
G D7
We shall miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
G G7 C
For you take with you all of the sunshine
D7 D G
That has brightened our pathway a while
[CHORUS]
G D7 G
Then come sit by my side if you love me
G D7
Do not hasten to bid me, Adieu
G G7 C
Just remember the Red River Valley
D7 D G
And the cowboy thats loved you so true
[VERSE]
G D7 G
For a long time my darling, I've waited
G D7
For the sweet words, You never would say
G G7 C
Now at last, All my fond hopes have vanished
D7 D G
For they say, That you're going away
[CHORUS]
G D7 G
Then come sit by my side if you love me
G D7
Do not hasten to bid me, Adieu
G G7 C
Just remember the Red River Valley
D7 D G
And the cowboy thats loved you so true
