Am Am
Cheeks as red as a blooming rose
Am G
And eyes of the prettiest brown
Am G
She is the darling of my heart
Am G Am
Sweetest lil’ girl in town
Chorus:
Am Am
Shady Grove, my little love
Am G
Shady Grove, I say
Am G
Shady Grove, my little love
Am G Am
I’m bound to go away
I wish I had a big fine horse
And corn to feed him on
And Shady Grove to stay at home
And feed him while I’m gone
Chorus
Went to see my Shady Grove
Standing in the door
Her shoes and stockin’s in her hand
And her little bare feet on the door
Chorus
When I was a little boy
I wanted a Barlow knife
Now I want little Shady Grove
To say she’ll be my wife
Chorus
Cheeks as red as a blooming rose
Am G
And eyes of the prettiest brown
Am G
She is the darling of my heart
Am G Am
Sweetest lil’ girl in town
Chorus:
Am Am
Shady Grove, my little love
Am G
Shady Grove, I say
Am G
Shady Grove, my little love
Am G Am
I’m bound to go away
I wish I had a big fine horse
And corn to feed him on
And Shady Grove to stay at home
And feed him while I’m gone
Chorus
Went to see my Shady Grove
Standing in the door
Her shoes and stockin’s in her hand
And her little bare feet on the door
Chorus
When I was a little boy
I wanted a Barlow knife
Now I want little Shady Grove
To say she’ll be my wife
