Clementine
C G7 C
Oh my darling Clementine
F C
She knew that Cody was the man she wanted
G7 C
But she had waited nearly all her life
F C
Just one more trip to town to tell the boys goodbye
G7 C
Then he'd be back to take her for his wife
G7 C
Don't you worry Clementine
F C
Cody saddled up and left his darling
G7 C
Then rode to town to celebrate his plan
F C
He told them this would be his last carousing
G7 C
I'm gonna settle down boys if I can
G7 C
With my darling Clementine
F C
Someone said it must have been past midnight
G7 C
When Cody had to face a jealous man
F C
Another story goes that no one really knows
G7 C
But it seems there was a dance-hall girl called Nan
G7 C
Don't you tell Clementine
F C
We do know that a shot or two was heard from some back room
G7 C
Then there was a silence in the place
F C
Just one more trip to town but all his chips were down
G7 C
They found Cody lying on his face
G7 C
Softly calling Clementine
F C
So buddies make a monument to lay down at his head
G7 C
Sure you hate to leave your pal behind
F C
Mother help your daughter put her wedding dress away
G7 C
Cause Cody won't be riding back this time
G7 C
To his darling Clementine
