Red Velvet
by Ian Tyson
(G) Four months ago in (A) April, on a (D) daycoach she came (C) down
And the (G) dusty autumn (D) winds begin to (G) blow (D)
I should've (G) known I couldn't (A) hold her living (D) out so far from (C) town
And the (G) nights to come are (D) long and slow to (G) go
Well if
(F) I had only
(C) known be(D)fore
we (G) kissed
(C)
You
can't keep red (F) velvet
on a (D) poor
dirt farm like (G)
this
Well now
she's up and left me and went walking down the line
And the
dusty autumn winds begin to blow
All dressed
up in red velvet and her high heeled shoes so fine
And the
nights to come are long and slow to go
Well now
she's up and left me and went walking down the line
And the
dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Well I'll
sit and count the evening stars as they walk around
When the
dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Then I'll
call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll drive on into town
'Cause
the nights to come are long and slow to go
And those dusty autumn (F) winds be(Am)gin to (G) blow
