Songs For My Own Enjoyment: Down In The Valley (aka Birmingham Jail)

G                                 D7   

Down in the valley, the valley so low  

                                    G     

Late in the evening, hear the train blow  

                                         D7    

Hear the train blow love, hear the train blow  

                                    G     

Late in the evening, hear the train blow  

G                             D7    

Write me a letter, send it by mail  

                              G     

Send it in care of Birmingham Jail  

                                  D7    

Birmingham Jail, love, Birmingham Jail  

                              G     

Send it in care of Birmingham Jail  

G                                        D7       

The train won't stay love, it goes right through  

                                  G    

It will be gone love, and so will you  

                                   D7    

Before you go love, for old time's sake  

                                      G      

Put your arms round me, feel my heart break  

D7                                    G      

Put your arms round me, feel my heart break  

G                                D7   

Roses love sunshine violets love dew  

                             G    

Angels in heaven know I love you  

                                 D7   

Know I love you dear know I love you  

                             G    

Angels in heaven know I love you  

G                                 D7   

Down in the valley, the valley so low  

                                   G     

Late in the evening hear the train blow  

                                        D7    

Hear the train blow love hear the train blow  

                                   G     

Late in the evening hear the train blow  

                                   G     

Late in the evening hear the train blow
