Clementine Acordes

	  

Verse
 
     A            E  
In a cavern, in a canyon, 
    Bm           F#m  
Excavating for a mine 
        A           E 
Dwelt a miner forty niner, 
        D              F#m 
And his daughter Clementine 

          A              E 
Light she was and like a fairy, 
        Bm                F#m 
And her shoes were number nine, 
        A              E 
Herring boxes, without topses, 
        D               F#m 
Sandals were for Clementine. 



      A              F#m 
Clementine, Clementine, 
      A                  D 
Oh my darling, Clementine! 


Verse
  
          A                E 
Drove she ducklings to the water 
      Bm              F#m 
Ev'ry morning just at nine, 
        A                     E  
Hit her foot there against a splinter, 
       D              F#m   
Fell into the foaming brine. 

     A              E   
Ruby lips above the water, 
        Bm                F#m 
Blowing bubbles, soft and fine, 
      A             E   
But, alas, I was no swimmer, 
     D             F#m 
So I lost my Clementine. 



      A              F#m 
Clementine, Clementine, 
      A                  D 
Oh my darling, Clementine!

         A       E 
then the miner, 49er 
       Bm              F#m 
soon began to peak and pine 
           A               E

         D               F#m

      A                     E 
in my dreams she still does haunt me 
       Bm                 F#m 
broken garments soaked in brine 
          A              E 
though in life I used to hug her 
   D                F#m   
in death i draw the line 


 
      A              F#m 
Clementine, Clementine, 
      A                  D 
Oh my darling, Clementine! 


Verse
  
      A                 E   
How I missed her! How I missed her, 
      Bm              F#m   
How I missed my Clementine, 
      A                 E 
so I kissed her little sister, 
         D            F#m  
and I forgot my Clementine. 



      A              F#m 
Clementine, Clementine, 
      A                  D 
Oh my darling, Clementine!
