E               A                            E
She wore red dresses with her black shining hair
            B7                    E        
She had my baby and caused me to care
             A                         E
Then coldly she left me to suffer and cry
               B7                         E
She wore red dresses and told such sweet lies

E        A                        E
I never knew him but he took her away
                        B7                     E
And on my knees like a madman for vengeance I prayed
                         A                      E
While the pain and the anger destroyed my weak mind
               B7                            E
She wore red dresses and left the wounded behind

E                  A                                E
I searched till I found them, then I cursed at the sight
                    B7                      E
Of their sleeping shadows in the cold neon light
                      A                              E
In the dark morning silence I placed the gun to her head
               B7                     E
She wore red dresses but now she lay dead
