C C F C
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
C C F C
She came from Spencer across the hill
F F C C
She said her Pa had sent her
F F Em Am
'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow
G G F F C C
Would turn the skies to winter
C C F C
She said she'd come to look for work
F F C C
She was not seeking favor
F F Em Am
For a dime a day and a place to stay
G G F F C C
She turned those hands to labor
C C F C
But the times were hard, Lord, and the jobs were few
F F C C
All through Tecumseh Valley
F F Em Am
She'd ask around, and a job she found
G G F F C C
Tendin' bar at Gypsy Sally's
C C F C
She saved enough to get back home
F F C C
And spring replaced the winter
F F Em Am
But her dreams were denied, her Pa had died
G G F F C C
The word come down from Spencer
C C F C
So she turned to whorin' out on the streets
F F C C
With all the lust inside her
F F Em Am
And it was many a man returned again
G G F F C C
To lay himself beside her
C C F C
They found her down beneath the stairs
F F C C
That led to Gypsy Sally's
F F Em Am
And in her hand when she died was a note that cried
G G F F C C
"Fare thee well, Tecumseh Valley".
**instrumental verse***

AND HER WAYS WERE FREE AND IT SEEMED TO ME
D C
THE SUNSHINE WALKED BESIDE HER
SHE CAME FROM SPENCER ?CROSS THE HILL
SHE SAID HER PA HAD SENT HER
CAUSE THE COAL WAS LOW AND SOON THE SNOW
WOULD TURN THE SKIES TO WINTER
WELL SHE SAID SHE?D COME TO LOOK FOR WORK
SHE WAS NOT SEEKING FAVORS
FOR A DIME A DAY AND A PLACE TO STAY

THE TIMES WERE HARD LORD, THE JOBS WERE FEW
ALL THROUGH TECUMSEH VALLEY

TENDING BAR FOR GYPSY SALLY

SHE TURNED TO WHORIN? OUT IN THE STREETS
WITH ALL THE LIST INSIDE HER
IT WAS MANY A MAN WHO RETURNED AGAIN
TO LAY HIMSELF BESIDE HER
WELL THEY FOUND HER DOWN BENEATH THE STAIRS
THAT LED TO GYPSY SALLY?S
IN HER HAND WHEN SHE DIED
WAS A NOTE THAT CRIED
FARE THEE WELL TECUMSEH VALLEY
