Red River Valley

           G           D7         
From this valley they say you are 
    G
leaving
We shall miss your bright eyes and 
      D7
sweet smile
         G                G7   
For you take with you all of the 
   C
sunshine
         D7                    
That has brightened our pathway 
  G
awhile

          G         D7           
Then come sit by my side if you love
G
 me
                         D7
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Continues after the ad
      G           G7         C
Just remember the Red River Valley
          D7                    
And the cowboy that loved you so 
  G
true

       G             D7        
For a long time, my darlin, I've 
   G
waited,
For the sweet words you never would 
D7
say
         G             G7         
Now, at last, all my fond hopes 
    C
have vanished
         D7                     G
For they say that you're going away

          G          D7           
Then come sit by my side if you love
G
 me
                         D7
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
       G          G7         C
Just remember the Red River Valley
          D7                       
And the cowboy that's loved you so 
G
true
