Verse 1
G 
Well, it started out for California in 1849
D 
G 
With nothing but a horse and a mule
D 
G 
and one little jug of moonshine
Cause everybody done got the fever
D 
so we head for Sutter's Mill
G 
And there we stopped
and pitched our tents
all over the side of his hill
We're diggin' for gold,
D 
we're diggin' for gold
G 
D 
Forty -niners, we're diggin' for gold
G 
Feelin' mighty bold and a
D 
-lookin' half -souled
G 
D 
G 
Hallelujah, we're diggin' for gold
Old Sutter, he said,
you better get goin'
D 
Cause all of this gold is mine
G 
But we just laughed and kept on pannin'
And singin' Clementine
We filled our bags with golden nuggets
Old Sutter sat down and cried
D 
G 
And he said, you doggone squatter,
get a -movin',
D 
G 
get off of my countryside
But we're diggin' for gold,
D 
we're diggin' for gold
G 
D 
Forty -niners, we're diggin' for gold
G 
Feelin' mighty bold and
D 
lookin' half -souled
G 
Hallelujah, we're diggin'
D

D 
G 
D 
G 
for gold
Well, finally dug till I got me a million,
D 
I head for Frisco town,
G 
And I found me a gal in a big saloon,
And I throwed my gold dust down.
Now everybody in San Francisco here
Helped me spin the dough,
D 
G 
And when my gold was gone,
they said, get going, you silly so -and -so
I'm a -diggin' for gold,
D 
I'm a -diggin' for gold
G 
Sad and lonely,
D 
I'm a -diggin' for gold
G 
Feelin' mighty bold and a
D 
-lookin' half sold
G 
Hallelujah, I'm a -diggin' for gold
We're diggin' for gold,
D 
we're diggin' for gold
G 
D 
Forty -niners, we're diggin' for gold
G 
Feelin' mighty bold and a
D 
-lookin' half sold
G 
Hallelujah, we're diggin' for gold
You
