[G#] [Dm] [C]
[F]
From this valley they [C] say [F] you are going.
We will miss your bright eyes [C] and sweet smile.
[C] [F] For they [Am] say you are [F] taking [A#] the sunshine
[F] That [C] brightens our pathway [F] awhile.
Won't you think of the [C] valley [F] you're leaving?
Oh, how lonely, how sad [C] it will be.
[F] Oh, think of the fond heart [A#] you're breaking
And [F] the grief you [C] are causing [F] me to see.
[C#]
As [F#] you go to your [C#] home by [F#] the ocean
May you never forget, oh [C#] sweetheart
That [F#] we spent in the Red [B] River Valley
And [F#] the love [C#] we exchanged [F#] amid the flowers.
Come [D#m] [C#]
[F#] [D]
[G] and sit by my [D] side [G] if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me [D] adieu.
But [G] remember the Red [C] River Valley
And [G] the boy that [D] has loved you [G] so true.
Oh, remember the Red [C] River Valley
And [G] the boy that [D] has loved you [G] so true.
[Gm] [G]
