Ricky Skaggs - Old Kentucky Shore (ft. Joan Osbourn) Chords

CAPO 2 



(Acapella) 
Up along the Ohio River 
Over on the old Kentucky shore 
     G                  D 
Once dwelt a fair young maiden 
              D        A      D     D
Now there's a crepe up-on her door 
 
  D                D                      
I walk down to the graveyard 
     G      C         D
Down by the Church of God 
  G         C      D   
I looked up-on the one I love 
           D       A            D
That would soon be covered with sod 

CHORUS:
    D 
Up along the Ohio River 
     G                   D
Over on the old Kentucky shore 
     G       C          D 
Once dwelt a fair young maiden 
              D        A      D  
Now there's a crepe up-on her door 

BREAK: D  F  C  D, D  C  A, D  F  C  D,  D  A  G 

    D              D
The angels took my darlin' 
    G          C     D      
God needed the one I love 
  G           C            A         D
I reached the old Kentucky shore too late 
             D         A           D            
I'll make my plans and meet her up above 

    D
The last words that my darling spoke 
             G     C    D       (softly)
Was tell the one I love goodbye 
    G       C       A        D
I'd like to see him before I go 
         D        A      D      
But I'll meet him in the sky 

CHORUS:
    D 
Up along the Ohio River 
     G                   D
Over on the old Kentucky shore 
     G       C          D 
Once dwelt a fair young maiden 
              D        A      D  
Now there's a crepe up-on her door 
              D        A      D  (softly)or acapella
Now there's a crepe up-on her door
