Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][G][A][G][A][G][A]
[G][A]

[Verse 1]
When it's [D]time
from work to go
And [G]in my boat I [D]row
'Cross the [G]muddy [D]Ohio
When the [A]evening light is falling
And I [D]look towards Floyd's Knobs
Where [G]the [D]afterglories blow
And I [G]dream on two bright [D]eyes
With a [A]merry mouth below

[Verse 2]
[D]She's my bea[G]uteous Cat[D]arina
She's my [G]joy and sorrow [D]too
Though I [G]know she is not [D]true
Oh, but I [A]cannot live without her
For my [D]heart's a boat in tow
And I [G]would give the [D]world to know
If she [G]means to let me [D]go
As I [A]sing the whole day

[Interlude 1]
through
[D][G][A][G][A]

[Verse 3]
Catar[D]ina, your [A]lovely [D]hair
[G]Has more beauty, I de[D]clare
[G]Than all the tresses the[D]re
[A]From Smoketown to Oldham County
Be they black[D], red, gold or brown
Let them [G]hang to lengths be[D]low
They mean [G]not as much to [D]me
As a [A]melting flake of [D]snow

[Verse 4]
And her [G]dance is like [D]the gleam
Of [G]the sunlight on [D]the stream
And [G]the screeching blue jays [D]seem
To [A]form her name when screaming
But my [D]heart is full of woe
For [G]last night she made me [D]go
And the [G]tears begin to [D]flow
As I [A]sing the whole day through

[Outro 1]
