Red Wing Chords

(ver. 1)
Kerry Mills
[Verse 1]

G 
There once was an Indian maid, 
   C                 G
A shy little prairie maid, 
     C             G
Who sang away, a love song gay, 
    D
As on the plain she'd while away the day; 
      G
She loved a warrior bold, 
      C                  G
This shy little maid of old, 
      C                 G
But brave and gay, he rode one day 
     D
To battle far away. 

[CHORUS]

           C                               G
Now, the moon shines tonight on pretty Red Wing 
                  D                       G
The breeze is sighing, the night bird's crying, 
         C                               G
For afar 'neath his star her brave is sleeping, 
                    D                G
While Red Wing's weeping her heart away. 

[Verse 2]

       G
She watched for him day and night, 
      C                      G
She kept all the campfires bright, 
      C                   G
And under the sky, each night she would lie, 
      D
And dream about his coming by and by; 
      G 
But when all the braves returned, 
       C                  G
The heart of Red Wing yearned, 
     C                    G
For far, far away, her warrior gay, 
        D
Fell bravely in the fray

           C                               G
Now, the moon shines tonight on pretty Red Wing 
                  D                       G
The breeze is sighing, the night bird's crying, 
         C                               G
For afar 'neath his star her brave is sleeping, 
                    D                G
While Red Wing's weeping her heart away. 

           C                               G
Now, the moon shines tonight on pretty Red Wing 
                  D                       G
The breeze is sighing, the night bird's crying, 
         C                               G
For afar 'neath his star her brave is sleeping, 
                    D                G
While Red Wing's weeping her heart away. 

  G          F             C         D     G
Poor Little Red Wing's weeping her heart away.
