VERSE:
 G      D              D
There was a narrow road to that old foot path
         A        G   D  D
Where the briar tangles into the musky dawn
 D    D G    D
That old a-bandoned cabin
         A         G    D
Was the perfect place for forbidden love to hide

       D    G   D
She was the mayor`s eldest daughter
      A             G
She had a taste for the fruit of the vine
     D           Bm
He was a poor boy down in that holler
 G      D  A          D
And made his livin-in on his homemade wine


CHORUS:
 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
      A
He`d come callin`
    G
Velvet Red

 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
      A
She`d come running
    G
Velvet Red


VERSE:
 G          D
Don`t you know their love grew
     G   D
Like the wild flowers do
        A
She`d start to miss him
        G
With an awful thirst

      D
When that sun went down
     Bm    G
She`d go sneaking out
     D   A         D
He`d be waitin-in calling out to her


CHORUS:
 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
    A
Making love on
    G
Velvet Red

 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
      A
They were drunk on
    G
Velvet Red


VERSE:
 G      D
There was a child born
     G  D
Twenty years ago
   A        G
To a mother who never wed
        D          Bm
And though she gave no name for the father
 G        D  A         G
She called her daughter Little Velvet Red


CHORUS:
 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
    A
Momma calls me
    G
Velvet Red

 G   D
Velvet Red,
 G   D
Velvet Red
     A
My momma calls me
    G D
Velvet Re-ed
