This is such a long song my friends we only have time to say that we love you and thanks for [C] listening.
Give us a little listen my boy.
[Dm] [A]
[G] [C]
In the west [Dm] Texas town of El [G] Paso
Love was a [C] Mexican girl
Night time would find me [Dm] in Rosa's Cantina
[G] Music would [Dm] play and Paulina [C] would quarrel
Blacker than night [Dm] were the eyes of Paulina
[G] Wicked and evil while [C] casted a spell
My love was deep [Dm] or this Mexican mate [G] I was in love but in [C] vain I could
[F] One night a while your cowboy came in wild as [C] the west Texas [G] wind
[C]
Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing
With Paulina the girl [F] that I loved
[G] So in anger [C] I challenged his right for [Dm] the love of this mate
[G] The top of his hand for the gun that he wore
[E] My challenge was [Dm] answered in less than a heartbeat
[G] And some young stranger lay dead on the floor
For a moment [Dm] I stood there in life
[G] A pally bold read I [C] had done
Many thoughts ran [Dm] through my mind as I stood [G] there
I had [D] but one care in that was
[C] [F] Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran
Out where the horses were tossed
[Gm]
[C] I caught a good one it looked like it could run
Up on its back and away I [F] did ride
Just [G] as fast as I could from the west Texas [Dm] town of El [G] Paso
Out through the battle and the New [C] Mexico
Back in El Paso my [Dm] life would be worth
[G] Everything's gone in life nothing [C] is left
It's been so long since I've seen the young lady
My love is [G] stronger than my [C] fear of death
[D] [F] I'd saddle up and away I'd [F] go
Riding alone in [C] the dark
Maybe tomorrow a bullet will find me
Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in [F] my heart
And [G] at last here [C] I am
I'm on the hill [Dm] [G] to see Rosa's cantina [C] below
My love is strong and [Dm] it pushes me [G] on
Down on the hill to Paulina [C] my brother
[Dm] Paulina his mouth [G] is mighty as a [C] new-blown sky
Three rubies, two [Dm] lovey hearts that I'll die [G] for
One little kiss that Paulina
Good
[C]
[Eb] [N]
