Gordon Lightfoot Red Velvet Lyrics

CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO:
VRS 1:
Four months ago in April, on a day-coach she came down
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
I should've known I couldn't hold her, living out so far from town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
VRS 2:
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
HORUS:
Well, if I had only known before we kissed
You can't keep red velvet on a poor dirt farm like this
Ohh, now she's gone and left me and went walking down the line
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
INSTRUMNTL:
VRS 3:
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
VRS 4:
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
The nights to come are long and slow to go
OUTRO:
And those dusty autumn winds begin to blow
