Key : D
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
D | Em | A7 | D 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D                     Em
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
A7                            D
I fell in love with a Mexican girl
                           Em
Nighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina
A7                                 D
Music would play and Feleena would whirl

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D                               Em
Blacker than night were the eyes  of Feleena
A7                              D
Wicked and evil while casting a spell
                          Em
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden
A7                                  D   D7
I was in love, but in vain, I could tell

[Verse 3]
---------------------
G
One night a wild young cowboy came in
                       D
Wild as the West Texas wind
Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing
                                     G
With wicked Feleena, the girl that I loved

[Verse 4]
---------------------
      A7      D                            Em
So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden
A7                                     D
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore
                             Em
My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat
    A7                                      D    D7
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor

[Verse 5]
---------------------
G
Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran
                          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
        A7        D
Just as fast as I could from

[Verse 6]
---------------------
               Em
The West Texas town of El Paso
A7                             D
Out to the badlands of New Mexico
                   Em
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless
A7                                    D
Everything's gone in life, nothing is left

[Verse 7]
---------------------
D                            Em
It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden
A7                                  D    D7
My love is stronger than my fear of death

[Verse 8]
---------------------
G
I saddled up and away I did go
                    D
Riding alone in the dark
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me
                                             G
Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart

[Verse 9]
---------------------
       A7          D                  Em
And at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso
A7                         D
I can see Rosa's Cantina below
                         Em
My love is strong and it pushes me onward
A7                             D
Down off the hill to Feleena I go

[Verse 10]
---------------------
D                     Em
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys
A7                             D
Off to my left ride a dozen or more
                         Em
Shouting and shooting, I can't let them catch me
A7                               D   D7
I have to make it to Rosa's back door

[Verse 11]
---------------------
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

[Verse 12]
---------------------
       A7         D                      Em
But my love for Feleena is strong, and I rise where I've fallen
A7                                D
Though I am weary I can't stop to rest
                        Em
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle
A7                              D
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

[Verse 13]
---------------------
D                     Em
From out of nowhere Feleena has found me
A7                                   D
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side
                          Em
Cradled by two loving arms  that I'll die for
A7                                D
One little kiss, and Feleena, goodbye
