She Sang The Red River Valley
By: Reckless Kelly


Verse:

  D MajorD          C majorC      G+G
At general delivery, she picks up her mail
D MajorD           G+G
Mama says Johnny just got out of jail
  D MajorD
She hopes he don't know where she's at
               C9C9      G+G
How could she had ever loved that kind of cat

Chorus:

  C majorC       D MajorD      G+G
She remembers the dance in the moonlight
     C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
From the hall to the back of his car
G+G             C majorC
He taught her how to drink whiskey
D MajorD         C9C9      G+G
Three chords on a pawnshop guitar


Chorus 2:

  C majorC       D MajorD       G+G
She remembers the first time he kissed her
C majorC       D MajorD      G+G
Back when the feeling was new
G+G           C majorC
She sang the Red River Valley
    D MajorD      C9C9      G+G      C9C9     G+G
For the cowboy who loved her so true


Verse:

   D MajorD           C majorC       G+G
She's working each night at what she knows best
D MajorD            G+G
Hanging in bars with professional guests
D MajorD
She picks up young buckaroo
             C9C9     G+G
Because he reminds her of someone she knew

Instrumental Break


Verse:

D MajorD            C majorC      G+G
Telephone rings off the hook by her bed
  D MajorD            G+G
The other ends Johnny with a gun to his head
     D MajorD
Said you always looked good in black
                C9C9       G+G
The next thing she heard was a bone chilling crack


Verse:

  C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
She pulled into town just at sunrise
C majorC    D MajorD       G+G
Mama had strong coffee on
   G+G             C majorC
Said "You know he's always been crazy
   D MajorD      C9C9      G+G
It's best for us all that he's gone"

Instrumental Break


Verse:

  G+G           C majorC
So at the request of the family
G+G           D MajorD
Service was held for a few
G+G           C majorC
She sang the Red River Valley
    D MajorD     C9C9      G+G
For the cowboy who loved her so true


Chorus:

  C majorC       D MajorD      G+G
She remembers the dance in the moonlight
     C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
From the hall to the back of his car
