Caballo Diablo Chords by Chris Ledoux

[C#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Wild as a [B] coastal Baronga, [A] swift as the [G#] wind blowing free,
[C#m] With two eyes like [B] firebrands that glow in the [A] night,
Somewhere up there [G#] he's waiting for me,
[C#m] And he knows [B] that I'm coming for him,
[A] And I just [G#] can't rest till I [C#m] find,
That raven [B] black stallion that wears no [A] man's brand,
With a wild restless spirit [G#] like mine,
_ [E] [C#m] They call [B] him Caballo Diablo,
Half horse [C#m] half devil they say,
Caballo [B] Diablo Diablo,
[A] Up [E] atop the [C#m] Sierra Madre, _ _ _ _ _
Two men before [B] tried to take him,
[A] They had their [G#] chance one by one,
[C#m] But each met his [B] fate when those flashing black [A] hooves,
Brought death beneath the [G#] Mexican sun, _
[C#m] Still I can't [B] leave I must find him,
[A] You fool of a horse [G#] can't you see,
[C#m] I may be half [B] man but the other half's devil,
[A] And you're just [G#] exactly like me,
_ [E] [C#m] They call him [B] Caballo Diablo,
Half horse half devil [C#m] they say,
Caballo [B] Diablo Diablo,
[A] Up [B] atop the [C#m] Sierra Madre, _ _ _ _ _ _
Even the [B] breeze has stopped moving,
[A] Oh [G#] hush now be still,
[C#m]
Don't [B] make a sound and stay close to the ground,
[A] Because he's waiting just over [G#] that hill, _
[C#m] Downwind [B] behind him move quickly,
[A] Do it fast now he's [G#] starting to stir,
[C#m] Grab a handful of [B] mane then a paw to his [A] back,
Start raking him [G#] down with my spurs,
[C#m] But dry as he [B] will he can't shake me,
[A] As over the [G#] breast bus we go,
[C#m] To shed the life [B] blood of a horse and a [A] man,
On the rocky [G#] Sierra below,
_ [C#m] They call him Caballo [B] Diablo,
Half horse half devil [C#m] they say,
Caballo [B] Diablo Diablo,
[A] Up [B] atop the [C#m] Sierra Madre,
