Red Wing - as performed by Jack Marti
Recently a man called me and asked if I could record this song for him, so he could give it to his wife for her birthday. Apparently they had been searching for a recording of the song for years, but couldn't find one anywhere. This intrigued me, as I was very familiar with the tune, but had never heard the words sung before. So I looked it up on You Tube to see if anyone had done a vocal arrangement of it. I could not find one. So I told him I would do it. And here it is!

Intro G C G C G Em A7 D7 G
There (G)once was an Indian maid,
A (C)shy little prairie (G)maid,
Who (C)sang a lay, a (G)love song (Em)gay,
As (A7)on the plain she'd (D7)while away the day;
She (G)loved a warrior bold,
This (C)shy little maid of (G)old,
But (C)brave and gay, he (G)rode one (Em)day
To (A7)battle (D7)far a(G)way.
Now, the (C)moon shines tonight on pretty (G)Red Wing
The breeze is (D7)sighing, the night bird's (G)crying,
For a(C)far 'neath his star her brave is (G)sleeping,
While Red Wing's (D7)weeping her heart a(G)way.
She (G)watched for him day and night,
She (C)kept all the campfires (G)bright,
And (C)under the sky, each (G)night she would (Em)lie,
And (A7)dream about his (D7)coming by and by;
But (G)when all the braves returned,
The (C)heart of Red Wing (G)yearned,
For (C)far, far away, her (G)warrior (Em)gay,
Fell (A7)bravely (D7)in the (G)fray.
Now, the (C)moon shines tonight on pretty (G)Red Wing
The breeze is (D7)sighing, the night bird's (G)crying,
For a(C)far 'neath his star her brave is (G)sleeping,
While Red Wing's (D7)weeping her heart a(G)way.
