Sweet Lauralie

D Bm G D
Down at the bottom of the Shenandoah River
A Bm G A
Cold and dark are the secrets she hides
D Bm G D
And her last dyin' plea was for me to forgive her
A Bm A G
Now she sleeps in the current my Sweet Lauralie

D Bm G D
General Forrest he calls me a traitor
A Bm G A
For leavin' his cavalry to go back to the farm
D Bm G D
I rode 300 miles to lay down beside her
A Bm G D
But I found her a lyin' in another man's arms

Blinded by hate I reached for my saber
And sent her to hell with that man by her side
Now my baby lies cold at the hand of my anger
As still as the mornin' my Sweet Lauralie

Cannonball strapped to her pretty little ankles
I watched her go under to that world down below
And I thought of the way her eyes used to twinkle
As I mounted my pony with nowhere to go

Down at the bottom of the Shenandoah River
Is a far better place than those gallows outside
As I swing on the breeze my sentence is delivered
And I'll soon be back with her my Sweet Lauralie
