El Paso City Chords by Marty Robbins

[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
From 30,000 feet above [F] the desert floor I see it [C] there below
_ [G] _ [C] A _ city with a legend, [F] the West Texas city of [C] El Paso
_ _ Where _ long ago I heard a [F] song about a Texas [C] cowboy and a girl _ _ _ _
And a little place called Rose is [G] where he used to go and watch this [Em] beauty world
_ [C] I _ _ don't recall who sang the [F] song but I recall the story [C] that I heard
_ And _ as I look down on this [F] city I remember each and [C] every word _ _ _ _
The singer sang about a [F] jealous cowboy and the way he [C] used a gun
To _ _ _ kill another cowboy [G] then he had to leave El Paso [C] on the run
_ _ _ El [F] Paso _ City, _ _ by the [C] Rio Grande _ _ _ _
[G] The cowboy lived and rode away but love was strong he couldn't stay
He rode back just to die and [C] that El Paso said
_ _ El [F] Paso City, _ _ _ by the [C] Rio Grande _
_ _ _ [G] I try not to let you cross my mind but still I find there's such a mystery
In the song that I [C] don't understand
My _ _ _ mind is down there somewhere as I fly [F] above the badlands [C] of New Mexico
_ _ I _ _ can't explain why I should know the very trail he rode back to El Paso
_ _ Can _
[Em] it be that man [Gm] can [F] disappear from life and live [Em] another [Am] [C] time? _ _ _ _
And does the mystery deepen cause [G] you think that you yourself lived in [Em] that other [C] time? _ _ _ _
Somewhere in my deepest thoughts [F] familiar scenes and memories [C] unfold
_ _ _ These _ wild and unexplained [F] emotions that I've had so long but [C] I have never told _ _ _
Like every time I fly up through [F] the heavens and I see you [C] there below
_ _ I _ get the feeling sometime [G] in another world I lived in [C] El Paso
_ _ _ El [F] Paso City, _ _ _ by the [C] Rio Grande _ _ _ _ _
[G] Could it be that I could be the cowboy in this mystery that died there in that desert [C] sand so long ago?
_ _ El [F] Paso City, _ _ _ by the [C] Rio Grande _
_ _ _ [G] A voice tells me to go and see another voice keeps telling me
Maybe death awaits me [C] in El Paso
