[C]
Verse:
In a [C]cavern, in a canyon
Excavating for a [G]mine
Dwelt a [F]miner forty-[C]forty-niner
And his [G]daughter, Clemen[C]Clementine
Oh my [C]darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clemen[G]Clementine
You are [F]lost and gone for[C]forever
Dreadful [G]sorry, Clemen[C]Clementine
Light she [C]was and like a fairy
And her shoes were number [G]nine
Herring [F]boxes, without [C]topses
Sandals [G]were for Clemen[C]Clementine
Oh my [C]darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clemen[G]Clementine
You are [F]lost and gone for[C]forever
Dreadful [G]sorry, Clemen[C]Clementine
Drove she [C]ducklings to the water
Every morning just at [G]nine
Hit her [F]foot against a [C]splinter
Fell in[G]into the foaming [C]brine
Oh my [C]darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clemen[G]Clementine
You are [F]lost and gone for[C]forever
Dreadful [G]sorry, Clemen[C]Clementine
Ruby [C]lips above the water
Blowing bubbles, soft and [G]fine
But, a[F]alas, I was no [C]swimmer
So I [G]lost my Clemen[C]Clementine
Oh my [C]darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clemen[G]Clementine
You are [F]lost and gone for[C]forever
Dreadful [G]sorry, Clemen[C]Clementine
