DESCRIPTION:
(G) Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me (D7) adieu
But re (G) member that Red River (C) valley
and the (D7) cowboy that loves you so (G) true

From this valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet (D7) smile
For they (G) say you are taking the (C) sunshine
that (D7) brightens our pathway a (G) while

Won't you think of the valley you're leaving
Oh how lonely how sad it will (D7) be
(G) think of the fond heart you're (C) breaking
and the (D7) grief you are causing to (G) me

As you go to your home by the ocean
May you never forget those sweet (D7) hours
That we (G) spent in the Red River (C) valley
and the (D7) love we exchanged mid the (G) flowers

I have promised you darling that never
will a word from my lips cause you (D7) pain
And my (G) life it will be yours for (C) ever
if you (D7) only will love me a (G) gain

(G) Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me (D7) adieu
But re (G) member the Red River (C) valley
and the (D7) cowboy that loves you so (G7) true
