Verse 1
C 
 (C major) Down by the river where
G 
the  (G major) big boats go by
Each day you could see them
C

They planned to be married
G 
at the  (G major) first sign of spring
And Jim would take Cindy
to see New Orleans
C 
 (C major) The town folks would smile
G 
as they  (G major) sat there alone
Jim talked of the day he'd
C 
make Cindy  (C major) his own
G 
He saved his money to  (G major) buy her a ring
And take his sweet Cindy to see

Verse 2
D 
A 
One  (D major) day a  (A major) ri verboat gambler chanced by
And captured her heart with
D 
his sweet  (D major) words and lies
He told her come with me
A 
and  (A major) you'll be a queen
So they left together to
D 
see New Orleans  (D major) 
Each day you can see Jim though
A 
 (A major) years have gone by
Down by the river where
D 
the  (D major) big boats go by
She wrote she'd return at
A 
the first  (A major) sign of spring
