Intro 1
(C major)
Verse 1
Some of us turn off the lights and we (C major)
live
In the moonlight shooting by (F major)
Some of us scare ourselves
to death (C major) in the dark
To be where the angels fly (G major)
(C major) Pretty maids all in a row lined up
Outside my cab (F major) in door
I've never wanted any
of them (C major) wanting me
Except the girl (E minor) from the
Red River (G major) shore
(C major)

Verse 2
Well, I sat by her side and for a while I tried
To make that girl my wife (F major)
She gave me her best
advice (C major) and she said
"Go home and lead a quiet life." (G major)
Well, I've (C major) been to the east
and I've been to the west
And I've been out where the
black winds roar (F major)
Somehow, though,
I never (C major) did get that far
With the girl from the Red (G major) River shore
(C major)
Verse 3
(G major) Well, I (C major) knew when I first laid eyes on her
I could never be free (F major)
One look at her and I knew (C major) right away
She should always be with me (G major)
Well, the (C major) dream dried up
a long time ago
Don't know where it is any (F major) more
True to life, (C major) true to me
Was the girl from the (G major) Red River shore
(C major)
Verse 4
Now I'm wearing the
cloak of misery
And I've tasted jilted love (F major)
And the frozen smile (C major) upon my face
Fits me like a (G major) glove
But I (C major) can't escape from the memory
Of the one that I'll always ad (F major) ore
All those nights when I (C major) lay in the arms
Of the girl from the (E minor) Red River (G major) shore
(C major)
Verse 5
(G major) Well, we're (C major) living in the shadows
of a fading past
Trapped in the fires (F major) of time
I've tried not to ever (C major) hurt anybody
And to stay out of a life of (G major) crime
(C major) And when it's all been said and done
I never did know the score (F major) (D minor) (F major)
One more day is an (C major) other day away
From the girl from the (G major) Red River shore
(C major)
Verse 6
Well, I'm a stranger here
in a strange land
But I know this is where I belong
(F major) I'll ramble and gamble
for the (C major) one I love
And the hills will give me a song (G major)
(C major) Though nothing looks familiar to me
I know I've stayed here before
(F major) Once, a thousand night (C major) s ago
With the girl from the Red (G major) River shore
(C major)
Verse 7
Well, I went back to see about it once
Went back to straighten it out (F major)
Everybody that I talked to
had (C major) seen us there
Said they didn't know who
I was talking about (G major)
Well, the (C major) sun went down on
me (G major) a long (C major) time ago
I've had to fall back from the door (F major)
I wish I could have spent
every hour (C major) of my life
With the girl (G major) (C major) from the Red River (G major) shore
(C major)
Verse 8
Now, I've heard of a guy who
lived a long time ago
A man full of sorrow and strife (F major)
Whenever someone around
him died (C major) and was dead
He knew how to bring 'em on back to life (G major)
(C major) Well, I don't know what
kind of language he used
Or if they do that kind of thing
any (F major) more
Sometimes I think nobody
ever saw (C major) me here at all
(G major) Except the girl (C major) from the (G major) Red River
