Em        G       D         Em
Joe was a man who loved the land
A-5         Em    C-5             Em
Learned to fight before he could stand
Em            G    D       Em
Nothing could make old Joe cry
A-5          Em            C-5        Em
Nothing, aw nothing but a red velvet sky

Met a buffalo girl named Adeline
She couldn't cook but she sure looked fine
She tried so hard to make Joe cry
But she left with nothing but a red velvet sky

Chorus:
     Am                      Em
That red velvet sky and that cold hard ground
B7                     Em
Nothing but gravel and rust
     Am                     Em
That red velvet sky makes a quiet sound
     B7                  Em
As a tear falls into the dust

Bill was waiting up on Crooked Hill
Adeline, his sister, said Joe he must kill
But Joe wouldn't fall and Joe wouldn't cry
Bill's last sight was a red velvet sky

Now Joe is gone and long ago
I don't know nothin' that Joe didn't know
And nothing could make old Joe cry
Nothing, aw nothing but a red velvet sky
