Dwight Yoakam - Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room

(She Wore Red Dresses)

>From the CD: Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room+-------------------------------------------------+

This is an incredible Dwight Yoakam song. None of

his other songs has a sound like this one. The

lyrics are haunting. To master the unique Spanish

sound of this song, you have to pluck the three

chords G, D, A as you see in the tab. As you

see I'm just slowly hitting the chords forwards

and backwards. You don't have to follow the tab

exactly, but it doesn't hurt. Here's the tab.

Play the tab twice before singing the song,

and three or four times at the end of the song

You can use it as a break in the middle of the

song, also. Here are the chords and lyrics.

+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 1:

{G} {D}

She wore red dresses with her black shining hair

{A} {D}

She had my baby and caused me to care

{G} {D}

Then coldly she left me to suffer and cry

{A} {D}

She wore red dresses and told such sweet lies

+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 2:

I never knew him but he took her away

And on my knees like a madman for vengeance I prayed

While the pain and the anger destroyed my weak mind

She wore red dresses and left the wounded behind

+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 3:

I searched till I found them then I cursed at the sight

Of their sleeping shadows in the cold neon light

In the dark morning silence I placed the gun on her head

She wore red dresses, but now she lay dead

+----------------------------------------------+

Have fun with it. :-)

AFTER THAT, HOLD THE E CHORD AND THE VOCALS COME IN...FOR THE VERSES

CONTINUE THE CHORD PROGRESSION WITHOUT THE FILLS BETWEEN CHORDS...ONE

GUITAR CONTINUES THE PICKING PATTERN WHILE THE OTHER STURMS THE CHORDS IN

RHYTHM....DURING THE CHORUS, THE SAME CHORD PROGRESSION APPLIES, BUT BOTH

GUITARS STRUM.

here are the electric gtr fills that come in around 2:24

progression as the verse...
