Olivia Newton-John – Banks Of The Ohio (Guitar)

A           
I asked my love

A          E 
to take a walk

E         E7
To take a walk, 

E7              A
just a little walk

A
Down beside

A                 D
where the waters flow

D            A     
Down by the banks 

E         A
of the Ohio

A
And only say

A              E
that you'll be mine

E         E7            A
In no o+thers' arms entwine

A       A7
Down beside 

A7               D
where the waters flow

D           A
Down by the banks

E         A      
of the Ohio

A
I held a knife

A           E 
against his breast

E     E7
As into 

E7         A
my arms he pressed

A            A7
He cried "my love, 

A7               D
don't you murder me

D            A
I'm not prepared 

E         A
for eternity

A
And only say

A              E
that you'll be mine

E         E7            A
In no others' arms entwine

A       A7
Down beside 

A7               D
where the waters flow

D           A
Down by the banks

E         A      
of the Ohio

A 
I wandered home 

A                E
tween twelve and one

E            E7
I cried, "My God, 

E7          A
what have I done?"

A               A7         D
I've killed the only man I love

D                 A
He would not take me

E       A 
for his bride

A
And only say

A              E
that you'll be mine

E         E7            A
In no others' arms entwine

A       A7
Down beside 

A7               D
where the waters flow

D           A
Down by the banks

E         A      
of the Ohio

D           A
Down by the banks

E         A      
of the Ohio
