Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Says Red Molly, to James,
"Well that's [C]a fine motorbike
A girl could feel special on any [G]such like"
Says James, to Red Molly,
"My hat's off to [C]you
It's a Vincent Black Lightning,
[G]1952

[Verse 2]
And I've [D]seen you on the corners and [C]cafes,
it [G]seems
[D]Red hair and black leather,
my [C]fa vorite color [G]scheme"
And he [Am]pulled her on be[C]hind
And down to [G]Boxhill

[Verse 3]
They'd Ride
Says James, to Red Molly,
"Here's a ring for your right [C]hand
But I'll tell you in earnest
I'm a dangerous [G]man
For I've fought with the law

[Verse 4]
since I was seventeen
[C]I've robbed many a man
to get my Vincent machine
[G]And now[D] I'm twenty- one years,
I might [C]make twenty- [G]two
And I [D]don't mind dyin' but
[C]for the love of [G]you
But if [Am]fate should break my [C]stride, then I'll give you my Vincent,
To [G]Ride"

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G]
[C][G]

[Verse 5]
"Come down Red [G]Molly," called
[C]Sargent McQuade
"For they've taken young James
Aidee for Armed Robbery
[G]Shotgun blast hit his chest,
left nothing in[C]side
Oh, come down, Red Molly,

[Verse 6]
to his dying bedside"
[G]When she cam[D]e to the hospital,
there [C]wasn't much [G]left
He was [D]runnin' out of road. He was
[C]runnin' out of [G]breath
But he [Am]smiled, to see her [C]cry
And said, "I'll give you my Vincent
To [G]Ride"

[Verse 7]
[G]
Said James, "In my opinion,
there's nothing in this [C]world
Beats a '52 Vincent
and a Redheaded [G]girl
Now Nortons and Indians and
Greevses won't [C]do
Oh, they don't have a Soul
[G]like a Vincent '52"
Well he [D]reached for her hand and he

[Verse 8]
[C]
slipped her the key[G]s
He [D]said, "I've got no further [C]use for [G]these
I [D]see Angels on Ariels [C]in leather and chrome
[G]Swoopin'[D] down from Heaven
[C]to carry [G]me home"
And he gave [Am]her

[Verse 9]
one last
kiss [C]and died
And he gave her his Vincent
To [G]Ride

[Outro 1]
[G][C][G]
