Verse 
  A                                D 
On the rock bluffs is high enough 
     A                    E 
Down below lock number two 
       A                        D   
Hanging trot lines out the window 
              E        A 
I'm making love to you 

 
  A 
Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling 
                                             D       E 
Oh my darling, Oh my darling,  sweet Marie 
          A                  D             A                  
We'll be slumberin' we'll be slumberin' On the Cumberland 
  E                                      A 
Down in Nashville, down in Nashville Tennessee 

Instrumental 
  A                           D 
Bringing fire wood up the river banks 
     A                      E 
When the water is way down low 
     A                 D 
Build a fire a little higher 
                    E           A 
You come herw and warm your toes 

 
  A 
Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling

Oh my darling, Oh my darling,  sweet Marie 
          A                  D             A                  
We'll be slumberin' we'll be slumberin' On the Cumberland 
  E                                      A 
Down in Nashville, down in Nashville Tennessee 

Instrumental 
   A                      D 
When the morrow In the morning 
       A                E 
There's nothing much to see 
       A                     D 
We'll be slumberin' on the Cumberland 
        E            A 
Marie, just you and me
