Out in the West Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
DO REmNighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina,
SOL7 DO FA DOMusic would play and Felina would whirl.
Black as the night were the eyes of Felina,
SOL7 DO FA DOWicked and evil while casting a spell.
DO REmMy love was strong for this Mexican maiden,
I was in love, but in vain I could tell.
FA SIb FA SIb DO7One night a wild young cowboy came in, wild as the West Texas wind...
DO7Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing,
With wicked Felina, the girl that I love.
SOL SOL7 DO REm SOL7So in an - ger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden;
DODown went his hand for the gun that he wore.
My challenge was answered, in less than a heartbeat
SOL DOThe handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor.
REmJust for a moment I stood there in silence,
Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done.
REmMany thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there;
SOL DOI had but one chance and that was to run.
Out through the back door of Rose's I ran, out where the horses were tied...
DO7I picked a good one; he looked like he could run,
FAUp on his back and away I did ride.
Just as fast as I could from the West Texas town of El Paso,
SOL DOOut thru the badlands of New Mexico.
REmBack in El Paso my life would be worthless;
Everything's gone in life nothing is left.
DO REmBut it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden,
SOL DOMy love is stronger that my fear of death.
I saddled up and away I did go, riding alone in the dark...
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me,
FATonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart.
And as last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso,
SOL DOI can see Rose's Cantina below.
REm SOL DOMy love is strong and it pushes me onward, down off the hill to Felina I go.
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys,
SOL DOOff to my left ride a dozen or more.
DO REmshouting and shooting; I can't let them catch me,
I've got to make it to Rose's back door.
FA SIb FA SIb DO7Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel a deep burning pain in my side...
It's getting harder to stay in the saddle.
I'm getting weary, unable to ride.
DO REmBut my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen;
SOL DOThough I am weary, I can't stop to rest.
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle,
SOL DOI feel the bullet go deep in my chest.
DO REmFrom out of nowhere, Felina has found me,
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side.
DO REmCradled by two loving arms that I'll die for,
SOL DOOne little kiss and Felina goodbye.
