Clementine E H7 1. In a cavern, in a canyon, excavating for a mine, E H7 E Dwelt a miner, forty - niner, and his daughter, Clementine. H7 Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Clementine, E B7 E You are lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry, Clementine. 2. Light she was, and like a fairy, and her shoes were number nine, Herring boxes without topses, sandals were for Clementine. Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Clementine, You are lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry, Clementine. 3. Drove she ducklings to the water every morning just at nine, Hit her foot against a splinter, fell into the foaming brine. Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Clementine, You are lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry, Clementine. 4. Ruby lips above the water, blowing bubbles soft and fine, Alas for me! I was no swimmer, so I lost my Clementine. Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Clementine, You are lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry, Clementine.
