[VERSE 1]
D F#m
Arlene, I'm sorry for what I done,
C G D
I wasn't looking for love 'til I saw your red hair in the sun
D F#m
What we had could ne'er be love, that was easy to see,
C G D
But when I saw you in Red's pouring coffee, something took a-hold of me
[CHORUS]
Em G A
Oh-wo-oo-oh, Arlene, you wouldn't even let me hold your hand
Em G D
When I stopped you in the road, you just screamed and ran

[CHORUS]
Em G A
Oh-wo-oo-oh, Arlene, you wouldn't even let me hold your hand
Em G D
When I stopped you in the road, you just screamed and ran
[VERSE 2]
D F#m
That night, I decided that I was gonna marry you
C G D
My knife went through your screen door and I went away with you
D F#m
You were singing, "Please let me go," all the way down to Miller's Cave
C G D
When I picked a stick up off the ground, you cried, "I ain't ready for my grave!"
[CHORUS]
Em G A
But, Arlene, in the dark, your hair's just as red,
Em G D
And this long, dark cave will always be our wedding bed
Em G A
But, Arlene, in the dark, your hair's just as red,
Em G D
And this long, dark cave will always be our wedding bed
