Red River Valley

                    E                                             A

From this valley they say you are going,

              E                                                  B7

We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile,

               E                 E7            A             A#dim7

For they say you are taking the sunshine

                   B7                                       E

Which has brightened our pathways a while.

Chorus

Come and sit by my side if you love me;

Do not hasten to bid me adieu,

But remember the Red River Valley,

And the friend that has loved you so true.

Won't you think of the valley you're leaving,

Oh, how lonely and sad it will be,

Just think of the fond heart you're breaking,

And the grief you are causing to me.

Chorus
