Chord/Tab song: Clementine

(Oh my darling C[C]lementi[G7]ne)[C]

She [F]knew that Cody was the man she [C]wanted

[G7]But she had waited nearly all her [C]life

Just [F]one more trip to town to [C]tell the boys goodbye

Then [G7]he'd be back to take her for his [C]wife

(Don't you [G7]worry) Clemen[C]tine

[F]Cody saddled up and left his [C]darling

Then [G7]rode to town to celebrate his [C]plan

He [F]told them this would be his last [C]carousing

I'm [G7]gonna settle down boys if I [C]can

(With my [G7]darling) Clemen[C]tine

[F]Someone said it must have been past [C]midnight

[G7]When Cody had to face a jealous [C]man

An[F]other story goes that no [C]one really knows

But it [G7]seems there was a dance-hall girl [C]called Nan

(Don't you [G7]tell) Clemen[C]tine

[F]We do know that a shot or two was [C]heard from some back room

Then [G7]there was a silence in the [C]place

Just [F]one more trip to town but [C]all his chips were down

They [G7]found Cody lying on his [C]face

(Softly [G7]calling) Clemen[C]tine

[F]So buddies make a monument to [C]lay down at his head

[G7]Sure you hate to leave your pal [C]behind

[F]Mother help your daughter put her [C]wedding dress away

Cause [G7]Cody won't be riding back this [C]time

(To his [G7]darling) Clemen[C]tine
