(Original Key: Bb)


Verse 1:

(n.c)
 Down in the valley,
    G
The valley, ha,
                 D
In the valley so low,
Hang your hair over your shoulder,
                                G
And you can hear the four winds blow.

G
 Now can't you hear,
The wind blow my love?
                        D
Can't you hear the wind blow?
Wowowowow, ha, ha,
We're down in the valley, ha,
                 G
In the valley so low, now, ha!

Verse 2:

G
 Now have you ever been lonely, lonely?
                       D
Now have you ever been sad?
Did you ever really need someone, oh my,
                                G
Who really needed; Fa-fa-fa fa, fa-fa-fa.

G
 Gotta, gotta, gotta, ha, too much,
Ooh yeah, help me baby,
D                             D
 Gotta get the groove, so too much, ooh yeah.

Verse 3:

G
 It was down in the valley,
                 D
In the valley so low,
It was when I held you so tight,
                       G
How can I ever let you go, go, go, go?

           G
Now it was down, down, down, down,
                                  D
Down, down, down in the valley so low,
When I held you so tight, now;
                       G
How can I ever let you go, now?
