[C#] [D]
[Em] [D] Out in the west [Em] Texas town of El Paso, [A]
fell in love with a [D] Mexican girl.
Night time was fine, and [Em] he knows his cantinas.
[A] Music would play and Felina [D] would whirl.
Black as the night [Em] were the eyes of Felina, [A] good and evil while casting [D] a spell.
My love was strong for [Em] this Mexican maiden.
[A] Was it love, but in vain [D] I could tell.
[Am] [G] One night a wild young cowboy came in.
Wild [C] was the west [D] Texas breeze.
[Am]
[D] Crashing in the belly the drink he would share.
He would forgive Felina, the girl [G] that I loved, [A] so in anger.
[D] But now she's back for the [Em] love of his maiden.
[A] Now with his hand for the [D] gun that he wore.
[C#] [D] [Em] Lost in her heart, [A]
a young stranger laid dead [D] on the floor.
Just for a moment, [Em] as the dirty silence, [A] brought about evil [D] deed I did.
Thoughts race [Em] through my mind as I step [A] back.
I had the one chance, that was [D] divine.
[Am] [G] Off the back of horses I ran, where the [D] horses were tied.
[A] [D]
I picked up that one he looked like, oh he's back in a [G] way I didn't like.
[A] My ass [D] cast out in the west Texas [Em] town of El [A] Paso.
Out through the battle lands of New [D] Mexico.

Back in El Paso, [Em] my life would be [A] worse.
Everything is gone, life and nothing [D] is left.
It's been so [Em] long since I've seen a [A] young man.
He was stronger than my [D] fear of death.
[G]
I saddled up in a way I didn't know.
Crying alone in [D] the dark.
[Am]
[D] Tomorrow will be a day of fun.
Worse than a slave [G] in my heart.
[A] And at last here [D] I am.
Off the hill, [Em] overlooking El [A] Paso.
Seeing wolves, can't be [D] never loved.
[Dm] [D] Rhylops starts, [Em] big [A] armor.
Off the hill, over the [D] valley, now I go.
Far right, [Em] far mountain [A] cowboys.
My left [D] eye does not know.
[D] Shouting at shoes, [Em] can't lift a [A] catty.
Got to make it through the world [D] and back door.
[Am]
[G] This death or your over I feel.
Deep [C] red and [D] pain in my side.
[Am] I'm [D] getting harder to stand inside.
I'm getting weary, unable [G] to ride.
But [A] my love [D] for him is [Em] strong and I rise up.
[A] Though I am weary, I [D] can't stop here at ease.
I see the white [Em] blood, the smoke from the ride road.
[A] Feel the bullet go [D] deep in my chest.
But now that no one [Em] really has died.
[A] Losing my cheek as she [D] kneels by my side.
[D] Little thought to [Em] the ones that are gone.
[A] Little kiss and bury the good way.
