CLEMENTINE –THE WHOLE STORY in F 3/4
123 12
In a cavern, in a canyon, excavating for a mine
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner, and his daughter, Clemen-tine. CHORUS:
Oh, my darling, oh, my darling, oh, my darling, Clemen-tine
You are lost and gone for-ever, dreadful sorry, Clemen-tine.
F C7 Light she was, and like a fairy, and her shoes were number nine. F C7 F Herring boxes without topses, sandals were for Clementine. CHORUS F C7 Drove she ducklings to the water every morning just at nine F C7 F Hit her foot against a splinter, fell into the foaming brine. CHORUS F C7 Ruby lips above the water blowing bubbles soft and fine F C7 F As for me, I was no swimmer and I lost my Clementine CHORUS F C7 How I missed her, how I missed her, how I missed my Clementine. F C7 F Then I kissed her little sister and forgot dear Clementine CHORUS
