APACHE (VOCAL VERSION with lyrics) - SONNY JAMES / THE SHADOWS cover

Описание: “Apache” (Vocal Version) - Sonny James. This was one of The Shadows greatest hits as an instrumental, written by Jerry Lordon. It was covered as a vocal by Sonny James, an American country music singer and songwriter best known for his 1957 hit, "Young Love". His version of Apache reached No.87 in the US charts in 1961. Dubbed the "Southern Gentleman" for his congenial manner, his greatest success came from ballads about the trials of love. James had 72 country and pop charted releases from 1953 to 1983, including an unprecedented five-year streak of 16 straight Billboard No.1 singles among his 26 No.1 hits. Twenty-one of his albums reached the country top ten from 1964 to 1976. James was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1961 and co-hosted the first Country Music Association Awards Show in 1967. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2007.
I expect not all viewers will like a vocal version of Apache, but you’ve got to be “brave”.
Note: The VHBL / Bob Brown uploaded their vocal/instrumental version (following an arrangement by Bob Brown) before I could upload my vocal version which I had been working on. Their excellent version can be found here:    • Apache vocal/instrumental by The VHBL .Arr...

Lyrics
Lonely Silver Dove Sweet Apache maid
Lonely Silver Dove Sweet Apache maid

Alone, all alone by the campfire
She dreamed of her love, her delight
Away, far away on the prairie
Her love Golden Hawk shared the night

Sometimes at night with the moon he would come
Sweet were the moments they shared
But with the dawn he was gone with the sun

A smoke sign arose from the prairie
A breeze sighed a sad mournful song
The brave Golden Hawk had departed
Had gone to that great, great beyond

Sometimes at night when there's rain in the sky
She hears her love high above
He and his pony go thundering by

Lonely Silver Dove Sweet Apache maid
Lonely Silver Dove Sweet Apache maid
Lonely Silver Dove Sweet Apache maid
