On the banks of the river where
[A] the willows [E] hang down
And the wild birds [C#m] are wobbled
[A] with the low [E] moaning sounds
Way down [C#m] in the hollow
[A] where the water [E] runs cold
Is where I first [B] listened to the lies that [E] you told
Now I lie on my bed [A] and I see your [E] sweet face
The past [B] I [C#m] remember, [A] time can't [E] erase
And the letter [B] you [C#m] wrote me [A] was written [E] in shame
But I know [B] your conscience still echoes [E] my name
Now the nights are so long [A] and sorrow [E] runs deep
[C#m] Nothing is [A] worse than a night [E] without sleep
I walk [B] out [C#m] alone
[A] and look out [E] the sky
Too [B] empty to sing, [G#m] [B]
too lonesome to [E] cry
So if you ladies were blackbirds, if [A] you ladies [E] were thrushes
I'd lie there [C#m] for hours [A] in them cold chilly [E] marshes
And if you ladies [C#m] were [C#]
[A] squirrels with them high bushy [E] tails
I'd feel like my [B] shotgun with raw salt [E] and nails
