Dwight Yoakam - Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room
                (She Wore Red Dresses)

>From the CD:    Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room
+-------------------------------------------------+
This is an incredible Dwight Yoakam song.  None of
his other songs has a sound like this one.  The 
lyrics are haunting.  To master the unique Spanish
sound of this song, you have to pluck the three
chords G, D, A as you see in the tab.  As you
see I'm just slowly hitting the chords forwards
and backwards.  You don't have to follow the tab
exactly, but it doesn't hurt.  Here's the tab.

Play the tab twice before singing the song,
and three or four times at the end of the song
You can use it as a break in the middle of the
song, also.  Here are the chords and lyrics.
+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 1:

{G}                                        {D}
She wore red dresses with her black shining hair

          {A}                   {D}
She had my baby and caused me to care

{G}                                  {D}
Then coldly she left me to suffer and cry

            {A}                         {D}
She wore red dresses and told such sweet lies

+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 2:

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

+---------------------------------------------+

Verse 3:

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

+----------------------------------------------+

Have fun with it. :-)
