Аккорды Nanci Griffith - Tecumseh Valley

  The name she gave was Caroline
                F       F     C     C
  Daughter of a miner
                        F         F           Em          Am
  And her ways were free and it seemed to me
                G           G         F        F      C     C
  The sunshine walked beside her

  She came from Spencer across the hill
  She said her Pa had sent her
  'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow
  Would turn the skies to winter

  She said she'd come to look for work
  She was not seeking favor
  For a dime a day and a place to stay
  She turned those hands to labor

  But the times were hard, Lord, and the jobs were few
  All through Tecumseh Valley
  She'd ask around, and a job she found
  Tendin' bar at Gypsy Sally's

  She saved enough to get back home
  And spring replaced the winter
  But her dreams were denied, her Pa had died
  The word come down from Spencer

  So she turned to whorin' out on the streets
  With all the lust inside her
  And it was many a man returned again
  To lay himself beside her

  They found her down beneath the stairs
  That led to Gypsy Sally's
  And in her hand when she died was a note that cried
  "Fare thee well, Tecumseh Valley".
