Texas town of El Paso

I fell in love with a Mexican girl

in Rose's Cantina

Music would play and
Blacker than night were

I was in love, but in vain I could tell

One night in Oaxaca, cowboy came in

Wild as the Texas wind
Dashing and daring,
a drink he was sharing

With Whitney and Felina,

the girl that I love
G

So in anger, I challenged his right for
Dm
The love of this maiden
G
Em
Down went his hand for
Dm
C
the gun that he wore
My challenge was answered
Dm
in less than a heartbeat
G
They had some young stranger
Dm
C
lay dead on the floor
Dm
Just for a moment I stood
there in silence
F
G
E
Shocked by the foul evil
Dm
Many thoughts in my mind
as I stood there
F
Out through the back door of Rosa's
C
I ran, out where the horses were tied
I caught a good one,
looked like it could ride,
G

upon its back and away I did ride
G

Just as fast as I could
Dm
from this West Texas town of El Paso
G
Dm
Back in the badlands of
G
C
New Mexico
Back in El Paso,
Dm
my life would be worthless
Dm
G
C
like nothing is left
It's been so long since I've
Dm
seen that young maiden
G
Dm
Em
G
C
My love is stronger than fear of my death
F
I saddled up and away I did go
C
Riding alone in the dark
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me
F
But nothing's worse than
G
F
C
F
this pain in my heart
G
F
C
And at last, dear, I am
Dm
on this hill overlooking El Paso

I can see Roses Can tina below
G

My love is strong and it
F

Dm
G
Dm
C
Down off the hill to Felina I go
Off to my right
G
Dm
I see five mounted cowboys
Shoutin' and shootin',
Dm
I can't let them catch me
F
G
Dm
G
I've got to make it to
F
Something is dreadfully wrong for
C
I feel a deep burning pain in my soul
Though I am trying to stay in the saddle
G
F
I'm getting weary, unable to ride
G
C
But my love for Felina is strong
Dm
and I'll ride till I fall
G
C
Though I am weary, I can't stop to rest
G
I see the white puff of smoke
G
Dm
G
C
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest
From out of nowhere,
Dm
Felina missed my knee
C
as she kneels by my side
Dm
Cradled by two loving arms
that I died for
G
Dm
F
One little kiss and Polina,
