          Bm      C          G
There she sits on Buttermilk Hill
    Bm                  C          G
Oh, who could blame her crying her fill
      Em         G      C
Every tear would turn a mill
           D          Em      C  D  Em
Johnny has gone for a soldier


      Bm     C         G
Me-oh-my she loved him so
   Bm                      C       G
It broke her heart just to see him go
     Em        G        C
Only time will heal her woe
           D          Em
Johnny has gone for a soldier

N.C. Em       Bm          C        G
She  sold her rod and she sold her reel
    Bm            C        G
She sold her only spinning wheel
   Em      G               C
To buy her love a sword of steel
           D          Em
Johnny has gone for a soldier


               Bm            C      G
She'll dye her dress, she'll dye it red
    Bm                C           G
And in the streets go begging for bread
    Em      G                   C
The one she loves, from her has fled
           D          Em
Johnny has gone for a soldier
