Red River Valley G D G From this valley they say you are leaving, D We shall miss your bright eyes and sweet smile. G C For you take with you all of the sunshine, G D G That has brighten our pathway awhile. G D G Then come sit by my side if you love me, D Do not hasten to bid me a due. G C Just remember the red river valley, G D G And the cowboy thats loved you so true. G D G For a long time my darling I've waited, D For the sweet word you never would say. G C Now at last all my fond hopes have vanished, G G For they say that your going away. G D G Then come sit by my side if you love me, D Do not hasten to bid me a due. G C Just remember the red river valley, G D G And the cowboy thats loved you so true.
