Tecumseh Valley
Townes Van Zandt
Key : C
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C

[Verse 1]
---------------------
                 F            C
The name she gave was Caroline
F              C
 Daughter of a miner
         F
In her ways were free
           C       Am
And it seemed to me
        G                  F   C
That sunshine walked beside her

[Verse 2]
---------------------
She come from Spencer
F               C
 Across the hill
F                         C
 She said her pa had sent her
             F
'cause the coal was low
      C          Am
And soon the snow
        G               F     C
Would turn the skies to winter

[Verse 3]
---------------------
She said she'd come
F              C
 To look for work
F                      C
 She was not seeking favors
            F
And for a dime a day
         C         Am
And a place to stay
G                          F    C
 She'd turn those hands to labor

[Verse 4]
---------------------
But the times were hard, Lord,
F                     C
 And the jobs were few
F                       C
 All through Tecumseh valley
          F
But she asked around
         C       Am
And a job she found
           G                F C
Tending bar at Gypsy Sally's

[Verse 5]
---------------------
                F                C
She saved enough to get back home
F                         C
 When spring replaced the winter
            F
But her dreams were denied
      C      Am
Her pa had died
      G                  F     C
The word come down from Spencer

[Verse 6]
---------------------
                        F            C
So she turned to whorin' out on the streets
F                        C
 With all the lust inside her
             F
And it was many a man
      C       Am
Returned again
      G              F   C
To lay himself beside her

[Verse 7]
---------------------
                   F                  C
They found her down beneath the stairs
F                    C
 That led to Gypsy Sally's
             F
And in her hand when she died
        C          Am
Was a note that cried
              G
Fare thee well
           F   C
Tecumseh valley

[Verse 8]
---------------------
                 F            C
The name she gave was Caroline
F                    C
 The daughter of a miner
          F
And her ways were free
           C       Am
And it seemed to me

[Fade Out]
---------------------
        G                  F
That sunshine walked beside her
