Introducción:
G
From this valley they say you are going
D
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
G G7 C
For they say you are taking the sunshine
D G
That has brightened our pathways awhile
G
Come and sit by my side, if you love me
D
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
G G7 C
Just remember the Red River Valley
D G
And the cowboy who loved you so true
G
I've been thinking a long time, my darling
D
Of the sweet words you never would say
G G7 C
Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish
D G
For they say you are going away
Chorus
G
They will bury me where you have wandered
D
Near the hills where the daffodils grow
G G7 C
When you're gone from the Red River Valley
D G
For I can't live without you I know
Chorus
