Banks of the Ohio

trad. / Joan Baez: Vol. 1

	D	A	A7	D
I asked my	love,to take a	walk; Take a	walk, just a little	walk.

	D7	G	D	A7	D
Down be	side where the waters	flow; Down by the	banks	of the Ohi	o.

	D	A7	D
And only	say, that you'll be	mine. In no others arms en	twine.

	D7	G	D	A7	D
Down be	side where the waters f	low, down by the	banks	of the Ohi	o.

	D	A	A7	D
I held a	knife against her	breast, as in	to my arms she	pressed.

	D7	G	D	A7	D
She cried: "	Oh Willie, don't murder	me, I'm not pre	pared	for eterni	ty".

	D	A7	D
And only	say, that you'll be	mine. In no others arms en	twine.

	D7	G	D	A7	D
Down be	side where the waters f	low, down by the	banks	of the Ohi	o.

Solo

	D	A	A7	D
I started	home 'tween twelve and	one, I cried: "My	God, what have I	done?

	D7	G	D	A7	D
Killed the	only woman I	loved, because she	would	not be my	bride".

	D	A7	D
And only	say, that you'll be	mine. In no others arms en	twine.

	D7	G	D	A7	D
Down be	side where the waters f	low, down by the	banks	of the Ohi	o.
