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
