Ian Tyson - Red velvet

Four ^Gmonths ago in ^AApril, on a ^Dday-coach she came ^Cdown And the ^Gdusty autumn ^Dwinds begin to ^Gblow ^D I should’^Ga known I couldn?^A??t hold her liv^Din’ out so far^C from town And the ^Gnights to come are ^Dlong and slow to ^Ggo ^D

Well ^Gnow she’s up an^Ad left me and wen^Dt walkin’ down ^Cthe line And the ^Gdusty autumn ^Dwinds begin to ^Gblow ^D All ^Gdressed up in red ^Avelvet & ^Dher high-heeled shoes^C so fine And the ^Gnights to come are ^Dlong and slow to ^Ggo

Well if ^FI’d onl^Cy known, ^Dbefore w^Ge kissed, that ^CYou can’t keep re^Dd velvet on ^D7a poor dirt farm lik^Ge this^G7 So ^Cnow she’s gone an^Dd left me &^G went walkin’ d^Fown the line And the ^Cdusty autumn ^Gwinds begin to ^Cblow ^G

Well I’l^Cl sit & coun^Dt the evening s^Gtars, as they ^Fwalk around When the ^Cdusty autumn ^Gwinds begin to ^Cblow ^G Then I’l^Cl call my dog ^D& take the tr^Guck & driv^Fe on into town ‘Cause th^Ce nights to come ar^Ge long & sl^Cow to^G go
