-3* -5* -5* -5 -5* 7 -7*
There once lived an In-dian maid
-5* 7* 7* -8* -9* -8* -7*
A shy lit-tle prai-rie maid
7 7* 7*7 -6 7* 7 7 -6 -5*
Who sang a lay, a love song gay
7 -6 5 -5 -5*
As on the plain she’d
-6 7 -6 -5 -3*
while a-way the day
-3* -5* -5*-5 -5* 7 -7*
She loved a war-rior bold
-5* 7* 7* 8 -9* 8 -7*
This shy lit-tle maid of old
7 7* 7*7 -6 7* 7 7-6 -5*
But brave and gay, he rode one day
7 -6 5 -55 -3*-5*
To bat-tle far a-way
-9* -9 9 9 -8 9
Now, the moon shines to-night
-9* -9 8 -7* 7
on pret-ty Red Wing
-7* 8 -7* -7* -6
The breeze is sigh-ing,
-7* 8 -7* -7* 7
the night bird’s cry-ing
-9* -9 9 9 -8 9
For a-far neath his star
-9* -9 8 -7* 7
her brave is sleep-ing
-7* 8 -7* -7* -6
While Red Wing’s weep-ing
7* 7 -6 -5*
her heart a-way

She watched thru the day and night
She kept all the campfiles bright
And under the sky,
each night she would lie
And dream about his coming by and by
But when all the braves returned
The heart of Red Wing yearned
For Brave one day, her warrior gay
Fell bravely in the fray
-9* -9 9 9 -8 9
Now, the moon shines to-night
-9* -9 8 -7* 7
on pret-ty Red Wing
-7* 8 -7* -7* -6
The breeze is sigh-ing,
-7* 8 -7* -7* 7
the night bird’s cry-ing
-9* -9 9 9 -8 9
For a-far neath his star
-9* -9 8 -7* 7
her brave is sleep-ing
-7* 8 -7* -7* -6
While Red Wing’s weep-ing
-7 7 -6 -5*
her heart a-way
