She Sang The Red River Valley
By: Reckless Kelly


Verse:

    D                    C            G
At general delivery, she picks up her mail
D                     G
Mama says Johnny just got out of jail
    D
She hopes he don't know where she's at
                             C9           G
How could she had ever loved that kind of cat

Chorus:

    C             D            G
She remembers the dance in the moonlight
         C           D            G
From the hall to the back of his car
G                          C
He taught her how to drink whiskey
D                 C9            G
Three chords on a pawnshop guitar


Chorus 2:

    C             D             G
She remembers the first time he kissed her
C             D           G
Back when the feeling was new
G                      C
She sang the Red River Valley
        D           C9           G            C9         G
For the cowboy who loved her so true


Verse:

      D                     C              G
She's working each night at what she knows best
D                        G
Hanging in bars with professional guests
D
She picks up young buckaroo
                          C9          G
Because he reminds her of someone she knew

Verse:

D                       C           G
Telephone rings off the hook by her bed
    D                        G
The other ends Johnny with a gun to his head
         D
Said you always looked good in black
                               C9             G
The next thing she heard was a bone chilling crack


Verse:

    C           D            G
She pulled into town just at sunrise
C        D             G
Mama had strong coffee on
      G                         C
Said "You know he's always been crazy
     D           C9            G
It's best for us all that he's gone"

Verse:

   G                     C
So at the request of the family
G                      D
Service was held for a few
G                      C
She sang the Red River Valley
        D          C9           G
For the cowboy who loved her so true
