[G] [E] [Am]
[G] [E] [Am]
[D] [G] [Am] Wild as a coastal [G] bronca, [F] swift as a wind [E] blowing free
[Am] With two eyes like [G] firebrands that glow in the [F] night
Somewhere up there he's [E] waiting for me
[Am] And he knows that [G] I'm coming for him
[F] I just can't rest till I [E] find
[Am] That raven black stallion [G] who wears no man's [F] brand
With a wild restless [E] spirit like mine
[Am] They call him [G] Caballo de Arco
Half horse, half devil [Am] they say
Caballo de Arco, [G] Lord I'm
Puttin' my purse in the air [Am] of my dress
[G] [E] [Am]
[G] [E]
[Am] [G] [F]
[Am] Two men before [G] tried to take him
[F] They had their [E] chance one by one
[Am] But each man is [G] faint when those flashing black hooves
Brought [F] death beneath the Mexican [E] sun
[Am] Still I can't believe I [G] must find him
[F] You fool of a horse [E] can't you see
[Am] I may be half [G] man but the other half's devil
[C] And you're just [E] exactly like me
[Am] They call him [G] Caballo de Arco
Devil [Am] they say
Caballo de [G] Arco, Lord I'm

[Am] Even [G] the breeze has stopped moving
Hush [E] now, be still
[Em] Don't make a sound and stay [D] close to the ground
I'm sure he's [C] waiting just [E] over that hill
[Am] Downwind behind him move quickly
Do it fast now [E] he's starting to stir
[Am] Grab a handful of mane and [D] up on to his back
And [F] start breaking him down with [E] my spurs
[Am] Try as he will [G] he can't shake me
[F] That's over the creek [E] this we go
[Am] To spill the life [G] blood of a horse and a [F] man
On the rocky Sierra [E] below
[Am] They call him Caballo [G] de Arco
