Capo on 3rd fret for John's version

This version of the song involves a lot of hammer-ons and pull-offs with your pinky

finger. If you find it too hard you can play plain D instead of D5 and D4!

Where the Walker runs

dow

n to the

Carson Valley

Plain

There lived a

maiden, Darcy

Farrow

was

her

name

The daughter of old

Dun

dee and a

fair one was

she

The

swee

test

flower

that

bloomed

over the

range

Her

voice was as

swe

et as the

sugar can

Her

touch was as

soft as a

bed

of g

oose

down

Her

eyes shone

bri

ght like the

pretty

lights

That

shine

in the

night

out of

Yerri

ngton

town

She was

cou

rted by

Young Vanda

mere

A fine lad was

as I

hear

gave her silver

rin

gs and

lacy

things

And she

prom

ised to

wed

before the

snows

came that

year

But her

pony did

stu

mble and

she did

fall

Her

dying touched the

hearts of

us one

and

Young Vandy in his

pai

n put a

bullet through his

brain

And we

buried

them

together

as the

snows

began to

fall

They sing of Darcy

Far

row where the

Truckee runs

through

They

sing of her

beauty in

Virginia

Cit

too

At dusky sun

dow

n to her

name they drink a

round

And

young

Vandy

whose

love

was

true
