[Verse 1]
Em      G                C    G
In the tallgrass we held hands
Em          G               C
Down by the river we made plans
Em      G                   C   G
Of what would and would not be
Em    G           C
Was impossible to see

Em   G   C   G    Em   G   C

[Verse 2]
Em        G                  C    G
The black boots shown in the sun
          Em                      G                     C
We we're waiting on the Anondale train for my baby to come
Em       G                 C          G
Little girl with the long black hair
Em                                G                   C
Do you know what lies 'neath the long coats that they wear?

[Verse 3]
Em      G                    C                   G
Once I swore you'd ride with me (to ride distant shores)
Em              G               C
And where this river meets the sea (to make you mine forever more)
Em              G            C              G
Over these dark hills I walk alone (I still hold you in my arms)
Em          G                C
To lie with you on a bed of stone

Em   G   C   G    Em   G   C

[Verse 4]
Em     G                   C     G
River blood red with the years
Em                 G                      C
You can flood this valley with a thousand tears
Em     G                    C
Wash away all that's been found
Em               G        C
But you'll never wash the sound
       Em                G            C
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
       Em                G            C
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
       Em                G            C
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
       Em                G            C       Em
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
