Artist/Band: Browns Tabs
Song: Scarlet Ribbons Tab
Here is another song by the Browns 50s vintage. Scarlet Ribbons was a
big song for them. This is my version of this beautiful song.
Thanks,

SCARLET RIBBONS
Recorded on RCA Victor in the 50s by Jim Ed, Maxine and
Bonnie Brown.
slow 3/4 time (waltz) my favorite key on guitar E
[E] I peeked [A] in to [B7] say good [E] night
[A] when I [B7] heard my [A] child in [E] prayer,
And for [A] me some [B7] scarlet [E] ribbons
[A] scarlet [B7] ribbons [A] for my [E] hair.
All the [B7] stores were closed and [A] shuttered
[C#] All the streets were [F#] dark and [B7] bare.
[E] In our [A] town no [B7] scarlet [E] ribbons
[A] scarlet [B7] ribbons [A] for her [E] hair.
Through the [B7] night my [E] heart was [A] aching
[C#] Just before the [F#] dawn was [B7] breaking,
[E] I peeked [A] in and [B7] on her [E] bed
in [A] gay pro [B7] fusion [A] lying [E] there
I saw [A] ribbons [B7] scarlet [E] ribbons
[A] scarlet [B7] ribbons [A] for her [E] hair.
If I [B7] live to [E] be a [A] hundred
[C#] I will never [F#] know from [B7] where
[E] Came those [A] lovely [B7] scarlet [E] ribbons
[A] scarlet [B7] ribbons [A] for [B7] her [E] hair.
