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