Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - Ohio river boat song

^CWhen it's time from work to go ^FAnd in my boat I ^Crow ^FCross the muddy O^Chio ^GWhen the evening light is falling ^CAnd I looked towards Floyd's Knobs ^FWhere the afterglories ^Cglow ^FAnd I dream on two ^Cbright eyes ^GWith a merry mouth ^Cbelow

^FShe's my beauteous ^CCatarina ^FShe's my joy and so^Crrow too ^FThough I know she i^Cs untrue ^GOh but I cannot live without her ^CFor my heart's a boat in tow ^FAnd I would give the world ^Cto know ^FIf she means to let^C me go ^GAs I sing the whole^C day through

^CCatarina, your lovely hair ^FHas more beauty, ^CI declare ^FThan all the tres^Cses there ^GFrom Smoketown to Oldham County ^CBe they black, red, gold or brown ^FLet them hang to ^Clenghts below ^FThey mean not as ^Cmuch to me ^GAs a melting flak^Ce of snow

^FAnd her dance is ^Clike the gleam ^FOf the sunlight o^Cn the stream ^FAnd the screechin^Cg bluejays seem ^GTo form her name when screaming ^CBut my heart is full of woe ^FFor last night sh^Ce made me go ^FAnd the tears beg^Cin to flow ^GAs I sing the who^Cle day through
