Red Satin Dress

Cherryholmes

Intro G F G D A D

G D

Five lonely days when I rode into town

A

Down from the mines to lay some money down

C D G

Stopped at a tavern they called “The Sweet Princess”

D A D

There I met the girl in the red satin dress

D

Her gown shimmered scarlet as she walked across the room

A

I could see her soft skin and smell her sweet perfume

C D G

Her eyes flashed with lightning, she beckoned with a glance

D A D

My life might be in danger, I thought I'd take a chance

C D

Hair black as a raven and eyes full of fire

C D A

Voice soft as a whisper filled me with desire

D G

Captured by her charm, like a man possessed

D A D C G D A D

I fell for the girl in the red satin dress

G D

I crept to a room at the top of the stairs

A

I could smell her perfume, I knew she was there

C D G

But when I stepped inside I faced another man

D A D

She came from behind, my knife was in her hand

D

I don't know what happened, my head was spinnin' 'round

A

I heard a soft voice whisper and stumbled to the ground

C D G

I saw a man lyin' , my knife deep in his chest

D A D

And gone was the girl in the red satin dress

(BREAK) C D C D A D G D A D

G D

Standin' in the courtroom, starin' at each face

A

Lookin' there for mercy, but can't find a trace

C D G

They don't believe my story, time's run out I guess

D A D C F G D C ?

No one's seen a girl in a red satin dress

G D

It's a long, long walk to the top of the stairs

A

At the top I'll stretch a rope and nobody cares

C D G

There's no one here to mourn when they lay me down to rest

D A D

All for the girl in the red satin dress

C D

Hair black as a raven and eyes full of fire

C D A

Voice soft as a whisper filled me with desire

D G

Captured by her charm, like a man possessed

D A D

I fell for the girl in the red satin dress

D G G F D

Don't fall for the girl in the red satin dress
