Verse 1
Em
Texas town of El Paso,
E
A
D
I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
Nighttime would find me in
Blacker than night were
A
D
Wicked and evil while casting a spell
Em
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden
A
D
I was in love but in vain I could tell
G
One night a wild young cowboy came in,
C
D
wild as the West Texas wind.
Dashing and daring,
a drink he was sharing with wicked Felina,
D
G
A
D
So in anger I challenged his right
Em
for the love of this maiden,
D
for the gun that he wore.
Em
My challenge was answered in less
than a heartbeat,
A
the handsome young stranger
Em
Just for a moment I stood
there in silence,
A
D
A
shocked by the foul evil deed I had done.
D
Em
Many thoughts ran through my mind
as I stood there,
A
D
I had but one chance and that was to run
G
D
Out through the back door of Roses I ran
G
C
D
Out where the horses were tied
I caught a good one,
it looked like it could run
G
Up on its back and away I did ride
A
D
Just as fast as I could
Em
From the West Texas town of El Paso
A
Out to the badlands of New Mexico
D
Em
Back in El Paso my life would
be worthless
It's been so long since I've
Em
seen the young maiden
A
D
My love is stronger than my fear of death
G
I saddled up and away I did go,
C
D
riding alone in the dark.
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me,
tonight nothing's worse
G
than this pain in my heart.
A
D
And at last here I am
Em
on the hill overlooking El Paso.
A
D
I can see Rose's Cantina below
My love is strong and it
A
D
Down off the hill to Felina I go
Off to my right
Em
I see five mounted cowboys
A
D
Off to my left, right a dozen or more
Shouting and shooting,
Em
I can 't let them catch me
G
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
D
A deep burning pain in my side
Though I am trying to stay in the saddle
G
I'm getting weary, unable to ride
A
D
But my love for Felina is strong
Em
And I rise where I've fallen
A
D
A
Though I am weary, I can't stop to rest
D
I see the white puff of smoke
A
D
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest
From out of nowhere,
Em
a felina has found me
A
Kissing my cheek as she
Cradled by two loving
Em
arms that I'll die for,
A
Em
A
Em
one fatal kiss and Felina, goodbye.
