E                     B7          E
                                       B7
I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile.
         E           E7         A
For they say you are taking the sunshine,
         B7                    E
That has brighten our pathway awhile.

Chorus:
E                  B7          E
Come and sit by my side if you love me,
                          B7
Do not hasten to bid me a due.
       E          E7        A
Just remember the red river valley,
        B7                      E
And the hobo thats loved you so true.

E                  B7             E
For a long time my dear I've been waiting,
                                     B7
For those words that you never would say.
       E           E7              A
Now at last all my fond hopes have vanished,
         B7                 
For they say you are going away.

E                       B7          E
Won't you think of this valley your leaving,
                               B7
And how lonely and sad it will be.
    E            E7              A
And think of the heart that your breakin,
        B7                          E
And the grieve that you are causing me.
