[D] [Em]
[D] Out at the West [Em] Texas town of El Paso, [A] I followed along with a [D] Mexican girl.
That time a piney [Em] in roses dented [A] up, music would play and Polina [D] would whirl.
Blacker than light [Em] were the eyes of Polina, [A] wicked and evil while [D] casting a spell.
Violet was deep [Em] for this Mexican maid, [A] I was in love but in [D] vain I could tell.
[G] What night of wild eucalypt came in, wild as the West [D] Texas wind.
Dancing and daring, a drink he would share me with wicked Polina, the girl [G] that I loved.
So in [A] anger [D] I challenged his rifle, [Em] he mounted the spade, [A] now put his hand for the gun [D] that he bore.
My challenge was answered [Em] in less than a heartbeat, [A] that's a young stranger lay [D] dead on the floor.
Just for a moment [Em] I stood there in [A] silence, shocked for the foul evil [D] deed I had done.
Many thoughts [Em] raced through my mind as I stood there, [A] I never once chanced that that was [D] to run.
[G] Out through the back door roses I ran, out were the horse of Good [D] Time.
I caught a good one in a pocket, good blue, caught his back in a whale [G] I did ride.
[A] Did this fast [D] as I did from the west, [Em] it's astounding the faster [A] I'll do the battle and the [D] music's in gold
Like an old [Em] bachelor my life will be [A] worthless, everything's gone and life left me in [D] his bed
It's been so [Em] long since I've seen the young [A] lady, my love is stronger than my fear [D] of death
[G] I set it up and away I'd go, riding alone in [D] the dark
Maybe tomorrow the bullet will find me, tonight nothing's worse than this pain in [G] my heart
And [A] at last [D] here I am on the hill, oh [Em] good looking out past, [A] I can see what was contained [D] below
My love is strong, [Em] it pushes me onward, [A] down off the hill to Bolina [D] I'd go
Off to my right I [Em] see five loaded cowboys, [A] off to my left right a [D] dozen more
Shouting and shooting [Em] I can't let them catch [A] me, I have to make it to [D] Rose's Manor
[G] Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel a deep burning pain in my [D] soul
Though I am trying to stay in this town, I'm getting where [G] we are laden do not worry
But [A] my love [D] for Bolina is [Em] strong and my rights that I have followed, [A] though I am well away I can't stop [D] to dread
[Em] [D] I see the white buck [Em] and smoke the white wool, [A] I feel the bullet go deep [D] in my chest
From out of nowhere [Em]
Bolina has found me, [A] kissing my cheek and she kneels [D] by my side
Great old I do [Em] love me arms that are rightful, [A] one little kiss and Bolina, [D] goodbye
