ON THE OLD KENTUCKY SHORE
As recorded by Bill Monroe

[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
F
I walked out to the graveyard
Bb F
Down by the Church of God
Bb F
I looked upon the one I love
C F
That would soon be covered with sod
[Chorus]
F F7
Up along the Ohio River
Bb F
Over on the old Kentucky shore
C F
Once dwelled a fair young maiden
C F
Now there's a crepe upon her door
[Fiddle Solo]
F C7 F

F
The angels took my darling
Bb F
God needed the one I loved
F
I reached the old Kentucky shore today
C F
I'll make my plans and meet her up above
[Chorus]
F F7
Up along the Ohio River
Bb F
Over on the old Kentucky shore

Once dwelled a fair young maiden

Now there's a crepe upon her door
