Banks Of The Ohio

• A

A            
I asked my love 

A          E  
to take a walk 

E 
To take a walk,  

E              A 
just a lit+tle walk 

A 
Down beside 

A                 D 
where the waters flow 

D            A      
Down by the banks  

E         A 
of the Ohio 



And only say  
that you'll be mine 
In no o+thers' arms entwine 
Down beside  
where the waters flow 
Down by the banks  
of the Ohio 


I held a knife  
against his breast 
As into  
my arms he pressed 
He cried "my love,  
don't you murder me 
I'm not prepared  
for eternity 


And only say  
that you'll be mine 
In no o+thers' arms entwine 
Down beside  
where the waters flow 
Down by the banks  
of the Ohio 


I wandered home  
tween twelve and one 
I cried, "My God,  
what have I done?" 
I've killed the only man I love 
He would not take me  
for his bride 


And only say  
that you'll be mine 
In no o+thers' arms entwine 
Down beside  
where the waters flow 
Down by the banks  
of the Ohio 


Down by the banks  
of the Ohio
