[F#m] One [G] night a wild young cowboy came in, wild as the west [D] Texas wind.
He was a young man, dashing daring, drink he shared, wicked Felina, the girl that [G] I
loved.
So [A] in anger I [D] challenged his [Em] rightful love,
this [A] maid, downed his hand for the [D] gun that he wore.
My challenge was [Em] answered, less than a [A] heartbeat, as a young stranger lay [D] dead on the floor.

[D]
[G] Out through the back door roses I ran, out where the horses were [D] tied.
I conquered one who looked like a runner, upon his back and away [G] I did ride.
Just as [A] fast as I [D] could from the west Texas [Em] town of El [A] Paso, out through the badlands
of New [D] Mexico.
[A] [D]
[Em]
[A] [D]
[G] I signed the plan, away I did go, riding
along in [D] the dark.
Maybe tomorrow the bullet may find me, died
nothing's worse than this pain in my heart.
And at [A] last here I [D] am on the hill [Em] overlooking
El Paso, [A] I see Roses [D] Cantina below.
My love is strong [Em] and it pushes me onward,
[A] down up the hill to [D] Felina I go.

Something's dreadfully wrong for I feel,
a deep burning pain in [D] my side.
Though I try to stay sad, I'm getting old.
I'm weary, unable [G] to ride, [A] but my love for [D] Felina is strong and [Em] I ride till I follow.
[A] Though I'm weary, I can't [D] start to rest.
I see the white puff [Em] of smoke from the rifle,
[A] I fear the bullet go deep [D] in my chest.
