C                           G               G7                   C
I asked my love   to take a walk  To take a walk,  just a little walk

       C7                     F                 C    G          C
Down beside  where the waters flow  Down by the banks  of the Ohio



C                            G           G7             C
And only say  that you'll be mine  In no others' arms entwine  

       C7                    F                 C   G          C
Down beside where the waters flow  Down by the banks   of the Ohio



C                           G           G7              C
I held a knife  against his breast As into  my arms he pressed
             C7                     F          C       G         C
He cried "my love, don't you murder me I'm not prepared   for eternity



C                            G          G7             C
And only say  that you'll be mine In no others' arms entwine 

       C7                    F                C    G         C
Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks   of the Ohio



C                                   G                G7                C
I wandered home  between twelve and one I cried, "My God,  what have I done?"

                C7         F                 C      G         C
I've killed the only man I love He would not take me  for his bride


C                            G          G7            C              C7
And only say  that you'll be mine In no others' arms entwine Down beside 

                 F                C    G          C   F           C     G         C
where the waters flow Down by the banks  of the Ohio  Down by the banks  of the Ohio
