 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚD ΚΚ(play intro) Κ 

Oh Laredo  

 

(lyrics and chord diagrams follow, chord progression remains the same)  

 

Make her think about the moonlit walks and Κ 

the long, long talks by the water's edge  

With her feet hanging of the Cane Creek bridge  

And bring to mind the first kiss we shared Κ 

at the old town square Κ 

when she drives down there  

Cause that's a day she said she could never forget  

Keep the nights by the candlelight as an ace in the hole  

'Cause those are nights of passion Κ 

that I know will bring her home  

 

 

Oh Lardeo, don't let her go  

Just take her by the heart  

And let the wheels turn slow  

Oh Lardeo, you're my only hope  

So take her back to the day we met  

cause thats as far as she needs to get  

oh but please don't let her go  

Oh Laredo  

 

Oh Lardeo, don't let her go  

Just take her by the heart  

And let the wheels turn slow  

Oh Lardeo, you're my only hope  

So take her back to the day we met  

cause thats as far as she needs to get  

oh but please don't let her go  

Oh Laredo
