INTRO: Am  D    Am

                                                   G
Riding in from Wilmington, through fields of cottonwood
       Am                                           Em
At the end of a three day journey, face of Angelina stood
Am                                                       G
Briars lie beneath her feet, a crown of [tangles] in her hair
         Am                                             G      Am
Upon her face no trace of the girl, he left behind, did linger there


                                                     G
"My love I left you for to fight, I left you for the war
      Am                                          Em
But a folly drove me far apart, kept me from your door
  Am                                          G
I procured a taste for liquor, oh, the gaming life
  Am                                             G      Am
I should have returned to your side to claim you for my wife"


INTERLUDE: D-Am  D-Am  D  Am  G   Am   E7   Am


                                            G
"Oh, tell me, oh, tell me, my dearest Angelilina
    Am                                                    Em
Who was it took your sweet smile, what did this, this day claim
    Am                                                          G
The colour from your ruby lips, your [reddle] sets the place to shame
    Am                              G        Am
Who gave to you a baby, but did not give his name"


INSTRUMENTAL: D-Am  D-Am  D  Am  G   Am   E7   Am  (2x)


                                             G
"I will never tell you, I will take it to my grave
    Am                                          Em
Who was it stole my young heart and carried it away
    Am                                                       G
The ride of love did fall to dust, now it's blackened up the sky
         Am                            G       Am
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I"


INTERLUDE: D-Am  D-Am  D  Am  G   Am   E7   Am


                                                              G
"The ride of love did fall to dust, now it's blackened up the sky
         Am                            G       Am
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I
         Am                            G       Am
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I"
