Down in the Valley Otis Redding
...DOWN IN THE VALLEY... by Otis Redding
------------------------................
*from 'Otis Blue' (1965)*
Verse 1:
(n.C) Bb F
Down in the valley, ha, in the valley so low,
Hang your hair over your shoulder,
And you can hear the four winds [Bb]blow.
[Bb] Now can't you hear the wind blow, my love?
Can't you hear the wind [F]blow? Ha, ha,
We're down in the valley, ha, in the valley so [G]low, now, ha!
Verse 2:
[Bb] Now have you ever been lonely, lonely?
Now have you ever been [F]sad?
Did you ever really need someone, oh my,
Who really needed; fa-fa-fa fa, [Bb]fa-fa-fa.
[Bb] Gotta, gotta, gotta, ha, too much, ooh yeah, help me baby,
[F] Gotta get the groove, so too [Bb]much, ooh yeah.
Verse 3:
[Bb] It was down in the valley, in the valley so [F]low,
It was when I held you so tight,
How can I ever let you [Bb]go, go, go, go?
Now it was [Bb]down, down, down, down,
Down, down, down in the valley so [F]low,
When I held you so tight, now; how can I ever let you [Bb]go, now?
