th Fret 



                    D      G  D  
By the banks of the river  
          G            D     G  D 
Where the willows hang down 
                       Bm     G  
And the wild birds all warble___ 
                          D      G  D 
With their high, lonesome sound 
             Bm     G  
Down in some hollow___ 
                     D     G  D 
Where the waters run cold 
                     C         G  
It was there I first listened  
                     D     G  D 
To the lies that you told 


                                  G  D  
If the young men were blackbirds  
    G              D         G  D 
The young men were thrushes 
                   Bm    G  
I would lay by the hours___ 
                  D        G  D 
In the cold rainy marshes 
                      Bm     G  
If the young men were squirrels  
                D     G  D 
With high bushy tails 
               C         G  
I'd fill up my shotgun  
                   D     
With rock salt and nails
