Joe Henry - Red River Valley Chords & Tabs

Red River Valley
(arranged by Arlo Guthrie, adapted by Joe Henry and Lisa Hannigan)

G                          
From this valley they say you are going
                                        D
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile

G                    G7         C
For they say you are taking the sunshine

         D                       G
That has brightened our pathways awhile



CHORUS:
         G
Come and sit by my side, if you love me

                        D
Do not hasten to bid me adieu

       G          G7        C
Just remember the Red River Valley

        D                       G
And the cowboy who loved you so true



          G
I've been thinking a long time, my darling

                                   D
Of the sweet words you never would say

       G           G7             C
Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish

         D                 G
For they say you are going away


CHORUS


          G
They will bury me where you have wandered

                                   D
Near the hills where the daffodils grow

            G             G7        C
When you're gone from the Red River Valley

      D                        G
For I can't live without you I know


CHORUS
