[C]
Some of us turn off the lights and we live in the moonlight [F] shooting by
Some of us scare [C] ourselves to death in the dark to be where the [G] angels fly
[C] Pretty maids all in a row lined up outside my [F] cabin door
I've never [C] wanted any of them wanting me [G] except the girl from the Red [C] River Shore
Well I sat by her side and for a while I tried to make that girl [F] my wife
She gave me her [C] best advice and she said go home and lead a [G] quiet life
Well [C] I've been to the East and I've been to the West and I've been out where [F] the black winds roar
[C] Somehow though I never did get that far with the [G] girl from the [C] Red River Shore
Well I knew when I first laid eyes on her I could never [F] be free
One look [C] at her and I knew right away she should always [G] be with me
[C] Well that dream dried up a long time ago don't know where it [F] is anymore
True to life, [C] true to me was the girl from the Red River Shore
Now I'm wearing the cloak of misery and I've tasted jilted [F]
love
And the frozen [C] smile upon my face hits me [G] like a glove
[C] But I can't escape from the memory of the one that I'll [F] always adore
Are those [C] nights when I lay in the arms of the girl from the Red River Shore
Well we're living in the shadows of a fading past trapped in the [F] fires of time
I've tried not to ever hurt anybody and to stay [G] out of the life of crime
[C]
And when it's all been said and done I never did [F] know the score
One more day [C] is another day away from the girl from the Red River Shore
Well I'm a stranger here in a strange land but I know this is [F] where I belong
I'll [C] ramble and gamble for the one I love and the hills will give me a [G] song
[C]
Though nothing looks familiar to me I know I've [F] stayed here before
Once [C] a thousand nights ago with a [G] girl from the Red River [C] Shore
Well I went back to see her about at once went back to [F] straighten it out
Everybody [C] that I talked to had seen a step said they didn't know who I [G] was talking about
[C] Well the sun went down on me a long time ago I've had to pull [F] back from the dawn
I wish I could have [C] spent every hour of my life with a girl from the Red River Shore
Now I've heard of a guy who lived a long time ago a man full of [F] sorrow and strife
That if someone [C] around him died and was dead he knew [G] how to bring them on back to life
Well I don't know what kind of language you use or if they do that kind of [F] thing anymore
Sometimes I [C] think nobody ever saw me here at all except a girl from the Red River Shore
