Oh My Darling Clementine Uke tab by Percy Montrose

G         
In a cavern in a canyon 
                 D7 
excavating for a mine 
        C           G    
dwelt a miner forty-niner, 
        D7             G   
and his daughter Clementine  
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine  
 
          G                 
Light she was and like a fairy 
                          D7  
And her shoes were number nine 
        C             G            
Herring boxes without topses 
        D7             G          
Sandals were for Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine  
 
        G          
Walking lightly as a fairy 
                             D7   
Though her shoes were number nine 
          C                 G           
Sometimes tripping lightly skipping 
       D7             G    
Lovely girl my Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine  

          G
Drove she ducklings to the water 
                      D7       
Ev'ry morning just at nine 
        C              G    
Hit her foot against a splinter 
       D7             G           
Fell into the foaming brine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine  
 
     G   
Ruby lips above the water 
                         D7 
Blowing bubbles soft and fine 
     C             G   
But alas I was no swimmer 
        D7           G   
Neither was my Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine   
 
     G         
In a churchyard near the canyon 
                         D7   
Where the myrtle doth entwine 
           C               G   
There grow rosies and some posies 
     D7             G          
Fertilized by Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine  
 
          G          
Then the miner forty-niner 
                       D7 
Soon began to fret and pine 
           C                G      
Thought he oughter join his daughter 

        D7             G  
So he's now with Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine   
 
       G                     
I'm so lonely lost without her 
                       D7 
Wish I'd had a fishing line 
        C                G     
Which I might have cast about her 
           D7             G    
Might have saved my Clementine. 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling, oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine   
 
      G                     
In my dreams, she still doth haunt me 
                              D7     
Robed in garments soaked with brine 
         C              G  
Then she rises from the waters 
      D7            G           
And I kiss my Clementine. 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling, oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 
        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine.  
 
       G                   
Listen fellers, heed the warning 
                       D7 
Of this tragic tale of mine 
    C           G      
Artificial respiration 
           D7             G  
Could have saved my Clementine 
 
      G                 
Oh my darling, oh my darling 
                    D7 
oh my darling Clementine 

        C                G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
dreadful sorry Clementine   
      G            
How I missed her how I missed her 
                      D7     
How I missed my Clementine 
      C                  G  
'Til I kissed her little sister 

       D7           G        
And forgot my Clementine 


 G         
In a cavern in a canyon 
                 D7 
excavating for a mine 
        C           G    
dwelt a miner forty-niner, 
        D7             G   
and his daughter Clementine 
 

      G                 
Oh my darling oh my darling 
                    D7 
Oh my darling Clementine 
        C                 G           
You are lost and gone forever 
         D7           G  
Dreadful sorry Clementine
