Oh My Darling, Clementine chords
Percy Montrose (1884)

* alternate

G (320003@1)       
In a cavern, in a canyon, 
                 D7 (xx0212@1)excavating for a mine; 
        C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)  
dwelt a miner, forty-niner, 
        D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1) 
and his daughter Clementine.  
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.  
 
          G (320003@1)               
Light she was, and like a fairy, 
                          D7 (xx0212@1)
And her shoes were number nine, 
        C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)          
Herring boxes without topses, 
        D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)        
Sandals were for Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.  
 
        G (320003@1)        
Walking lightly as a fairy, 
                             D7 (xx0212@1) 
Though her shoes were number nine, 
          C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)         
Sometimes tripping, lightly skipping, 
       D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)  
Lovely girl, my Clementine 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.

GDrove (320003@1)she ducklings to the water 
                      D7 (xx0212@1)     
Ev'ry morning just at nine, 
        C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)  
Hit her foot against a splinter, 
       D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)         
Fell into the foaming brine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.  
 
     G (320003@1) 
Ruby lips above the water, 
                         D7 (xx0212@1)Blowing bubbles soft and fine, 
     C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1) 
But alas, I was no swimmer, 
        D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1) 
Neither was my Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.   
 
     G (320003@1)       
In a churchyard near the canyon, 
                         D7 (xx0212@1) 
Where the myrtle doth entwine, 
           C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1) 
There grow rosies and some posies, 
     D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)        
Fertilized by Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.  
 
          G (320003@1)        
Then, the miner, forty-niner, 
                       D7 (xx0212@1)Soon began to fret and pine, 
           C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)    
Thought he oughter join his daughter,

D7 (xx0212@1)           C (x32010@1)
So he's now with Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.   
 
       G (320003@1)                   
I'm so lonely, lost without her, 
                       D7 (xx0212@1)Wish I'd had a fishing line, 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)   
Which I might have cast about her, 
           D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)  
Might have saved my Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.   
 
      G (320003@1)                   
In my dreams she still doth haunt me, 
                              D7 (xx0212@1)   
Robed in garments soaked with brine, 
         C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)
Then she rises from the waters, 
      D7 (xx0212@1)          G (320003@1)         
And I kiss my Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine 
        C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.  
 
       G (320003@1)                 
Listen fellers, heed the warning 
                       D7 (xx0212@1)Of this tragic tale of mine, 
    C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)    
Artificial respiration 
           D7 (xx0212@1)           G (320003@1)
Could have saved my Clementine. 
 
      G (320003@1)               
Oh my darling, oh my darling, 
                    D7 (xx0212@1)oh my darling Clementine

C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)         
You are lost and gone forever, 
         D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)
dreadful sorry, Clementine.   
      G (320003@1)          
How I missed her, how I missed her, 
                      D7 (xx0212@1)   
How I missed my Clementine, 
      C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)
Til I kissed her little sister,

D7 (xx0212@1)         G (320003@1)      
And forgot my Clementine.
