  			(D)Come sit by my side little (G)darlin,
Come (D)lay your cool (A)hand on my (D)brow,
Promise me that you will (G)never,
 be (A)Nobody's Darlin' but (D)Mine,

Nobody's Darlin' but (G)my love,
Be (A)honest, be faithful, be (D)kind,
Promise me that you will (G)never,
 be (A)Nobody's Darlin' but (D)Mine,

You're as sweet as the flowers in (G)springtime,
You're as (D)pure as the (A)dew from the (D)rose,
And I'd rather be somebody's (G)darling,
Than a (A)poor boy that nobody (D)knows,

Good-bye, Good-bye, little (G)darlin?,
I'm (A)leaving you just for a (D)while,
Promise me that you will (G)never,
 be (A)Nobody's Darlin' but (D)Mine.
