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