Out in the West Texas [Em] town of El Paso [A] I spent a whole week out there and [D] one day
I looked all over [Em] for Rose's Cantina
[A] I think Hernando had hid it away
I asked a cab driver [Bm] where's Rose's Cantina [A] I'd like to find it cause I can't [D] stay long
said why don't you go [Bm]

_ [D] _ _ Velveeta cha-cha shakes her maracas _ Over the bridge that they call [G] Santa _ Fe
So [A] _
away _ we [D] went into the traffic [Em] and over the river
I [A] asked the cab driver why [D] all the fuss _ _ Why do you follow [Bm] the front cab so closely

_ _ _ Velveeta's Cafe [Em] had standing room only _ [A] Wall to wall drunks all the way to [D] the street
_ _ _ _ I looked around [Em] for a place I could sit down [A] A lady stood up then and I grabbed [D] her seat _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ Soon I felt single [Bm] though I could see double _ [A] Drinking _ tequila and feeling [D] so grand
_ _ _ Started to walk out [Em] got _ into trouble _ [A] Just then some drunk stepped on top of [D] my hand _ _
_ [G] I see _ Velveeta's eyes looking at me _ _ Bloodshot and shining [D] with scar _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [Am] _ _
[D] I asked her where have you been all my life She answered most of it I [G] wasn't born
