Banks Of The Ohio Acordes

	  
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
