Trad. folk song
Key: D

  -2*   3 -3  -3 -4 -3  -2*
There’s a low green val-ley 
2  -1   3  -3   -4  4* -5
on the old Ken-tuck-y shore, 
  4*   -4    -3   -3 -3 -4  -3  -2* -1  2
Where I’ve whiled man-y hap-py hours a-way, 
-2*3-3  -3  -3 -4  -3  -2*
A  sit-ting and a sing-ing 
2  -1   3  -3  -4   4*   -5
By the lit-tle cot-tage door, 
4* -4  -3  -2*-3 -3  3    2   1*  -1
Where lived, my dar-ling Nel-lie Gray

2 -2* 3    3   3   3
O my poor Nel-lie Gray, 
 -3   3    3 -2* -2*-2*-2*
They have tak-en you a-way, 
-2*  3   -3  -3 -3  -3 -4   -3 -2* -1 2
And I’ll nev-er see my dar-ling an-y more, 
-2*3 -3  -3  -3 -4  -3 -2*
I’m sit-ting by the riv-er 
 2  -1   3   -3  -4   4* -5...
And I’m weep-ing all the day, 
 4*   -4    -3   -2*
For you’ve gone from 
-3  -3   3   -1  1* -1
The old Ken-tuck-y shore.
