Chords for Marty Robbins - El Paso (Live)

[C] _ _ _ _ _ Out in the West [Dm] Texas town of El [G] Paso, I fell in love with a [C] Mexican girl.
_ _ _ _ Night time would find [Dm] me in Rosa's [G] Cantina, music would play and fully know [C] what was. _ _ _ _ _
Blacker than night [Dm] were the eyes of Molina, [G] wicked and evil while [C] casting a spell.
[Em] _ [C] _ _ _
My love was [Dm] deep for this Mexican [G] maiden, I was in love but in vain I [C] could tell. _ _ _
[F] One night a wild young cowboy came in, wild as the [C] West Texas wind. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing with wicked Molina, the girl [F] that I loved.
[G] So in anger [C] I challenged his [Dm] rightful love of this maiden, [G] down with his hand for the [C] gun that he wore.
_ _ My challenge was [Dm] answered in less than a [G] heartbeat, the handsome young stranger lay dead on [C] the floor.
_ _ _ Just for a [Dm] moment I stood there in [G] silence, in shock for the foul evil Molina [C] had done.
_ _ _ Many thoughts raced through [Dm] my mind as I [G] stood there, I had but one chance and that [C] was to leave.
_ _ _ [F] Out through the back door of Rosa's I left, out where the [C] horses were _ tossed.
_ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ A good one it looked like it could run, up on its back in a [F] way I did right.
Just [G] as fast as [C] I could from the West [Dm] Texas out of El Paso, [G] out through the badlands of New [C] Mexico. _ _
_ _ Back in El [Dm] Paso my life would be [G] worthless, everything's gone and life nothing [C] is left. _
_ _ _ It's been so long since [Dm] I've seen the young [G] maid, my love is stronger than my [C] fear of death. _
_ _ _ [F] I saddled up and away I did go, riding alone in [C] the _ dark.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Maybe tomorrow a bullet will find me, tonight nothing's worse than this pain [F] in my heart.
[G] And at last here [C] I am with a view [Dm] overlooking El Paso, [G] I can see Rosa's [C] cantina below. _ _ _ _
My love is strong [Dm] and it pushes me [G] onward, down off the hill to [C] Belen I go. _ _ _ _
Off to my right [Dm] I see five mounted [G] cowboys, off to my left right a dozen [C] or more. _ _ _
Shouting and [Dm] shooting I can't let them catch [G] me, I have to make it to Rosa's [C] back door. _ _ _ _
[F] Something is dreadfully wrong for a few, a deep burning pain [C] in my soul. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Though I am trying to stay in the saddle, I'm getting weary, [F] unable to ride.
[G] But my love [C] for Polina is strong, [Dm] I rise where I fall, [G] though I am weary I [C] can't stop to dread.
_ _ _ _ I see the white [Dm] buffoon smoke from the [G] rifle, I feel the bullet go [C] deep in my chest.
_ _ From out of [Dm] nowhere Polina has found [G] me, kissing my cheek as she deals my [C] massage.
_ _ _ _ Wrapped by [Dm] two loving arms and I'll die [G] for what little kiss sent Polina.
_ _ [A] _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] Oh, that's one more song.
That
