[Verse]
C
On the banks of the river,
F C
Where the willows hang down
C Am
And the wild birds all warble
F C
With a low moaning sound
C Am
Down in some hollow
F C
Where the waters run cold
C F
It was there I first listened
F C
To the lies that you told
[Break 1]

[Verse]
F C
I'll lay in my bed
F C
And I see your sweet face
C Am
The past I remember
F C
Time cannot erase
C Am
The letter you wrote me
F C
It was written in shame
C F
And I know that your conscience
F C
Still echos my name
[Break 2]

[Verse]
C
If ladies were blackbirds
F C
And if ladies were thrushes
C Am
I'd lay here for hours
F C
In the chilly cold marshes
C Am
And if ladies were squirrels
F C
With high bushy tails
C F
I'd fill up my shotgun
F C
With rock salt and nails
