th Fret 



                    D      G  D  
By the banks of the river  
          G            D     G  D 
Where the willows hang down 
                       Bm     G  
And the wild birds all warble___ 
                          D      G  D 
With their high, lonesome sound 
             Bm     G  
Down in some hollow___ 
                     D     G  D 
Where the waters run cold 
                     C         G  
It was there I first listened  
                     D     G  D 
To the lies that you told 


                                  G  D  
If the young men were blackbirds  
    G              D         G  D 
The young men were thrushes 
                   Bm    G  
I would lay by the hours___ 
                  D        G  D 
In the cold rainy marshes 
                      Bm     G  
If the young men were squirrels  
                D     G  D 
With high bushy tails 
               C         G  
I'd fill up my shotgun  
                   D     
With rock salt and nails 


Instrumental: D  G  D  G  D  G  D  Bm  G  D  G  D   
              Bm  G  D  G  D  C  G  D  G  D 


                    G  D  
Now I lie in my bed_____ 
      G              D     G  D 
And I see your sweet face 
             Bm     G  
The past I remember___ 
             D     G  D 
Time cannot erase 
                Bm      G  
The letters you wrote me__ 
                D      G  D 
Were written in shame 
                     C          G  
And I know that your conscience  
          D     G  D 
Echoes my name 


                             G  D  
Lord, I lie here each night  
     G          D     G  D 
All alone and I weep 
              Bm    G  
Nothing ain't worse  
                     D     G  D 
Than a night without sleep 
            Bm   G  
I walk out alone___ 
          D   G  D 
Under the sky 
             C      G  
Too empty to sing  
                D     G  D 
Too lonesome to cry

If the ladies were blackbirds____

And the young men were thrushes 
                  Bm    G  
I'd lie there for hours___ 
                  D        G  D 
In the cold rainy marshes 
                   Bm     G  
If the ladies were squirrels  
                D      G  D 
With high bushy tails 
               C        G  
I'd fill up my shotgun___ 
                   D     G  D 
With rock salt and nails

I'd fill up my shotgun___
