[D]
[F#m] [G] [D]
She met him one night [G] in Laredo, just [D] a while coming, Cheryl may [A] say.
[D] They told her that he'd been [G] in outlaw, [A] and she'd have to send [D] him away.
They warned her of toil [G] and of hardships, and a [D] life filled with heartaches [F#m] and fear.
[G] Then [D] one day he sent [G] her a message, the [A] one she'd been waiting [D] to hear.
[G]
Meet me tonight in Laredo, wait till the moon's [D] hanging low.
[C] [Am]
[D]
Meet me tonight in Laredo, we'll soon be [G] in old Mexico.
[A] [D] That night as they slipped through [G] the darkness, to [D] the trail where their horses were [A] tied.
[D] He whispered a prayer [G] for tomorrow, [A] that she would be safe by [D] his side.
[G] [D] She smiled as they climbed in [G] the saddle, and [D] as swift as a wild prairie wind.
[A] [D] They rode to the Madre [G]
Sierras, [A]
repeating [D] these words once again.
[G]
Meet me tonight in Laredo, wait till the moon's [E] [D] hanging low.
Meet me tonight in Laredo, we'll soon be in [G] old Mexico.
[A] [D]
Now in their own [G]
hacienda, in [D] the glow of a soft [A]
candlelight.
[D] The hands that once held [G] a six-gun, [A] are holding their baby [D]
tonight.
She echoes his God will [G] go with us, and [D] at night when the moon's hanging low.
[A] [G] She [D]
smiles as she fondly [G]
remembers, the [A]
words he has said [D] long before.
[G]
Meet me tonight in Laredo, wait till the moon's [D] hanging low.
Meet me tonight in
[G#] Laredo, [D] we'll soon be in old [Bm]
Mexico.
[G] [Fm] [N]
