VERSE:
 G           D
There was a neighbor on the road
       G        D
To an old blue tavern
             A     G              D
Brought her table into the musky dive
 D          G        D
That old a-bandoned tavern
                A                  G       D
Was a perfect place for forbidden love to hide

             D       G      D
She was the mayor`s velvet sorrow
           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
Making a living on his home made wine


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

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


VERSE:
 G                  D
And you know their love grew
          G         D
Like the wild old 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 waiting on account of 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 had and gone
      A                G
To a mother who never wed
              D                    Bm
You know she gave no name for the father
 G               D     A        G
She called her daughter 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
