D                     Em
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
A7                            D
I fell in love with a Mexican girl
D                          Em
Nighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina
A7                                 D
Music would play and Feleena would whirl
D                           Em
Blacker than night were the eyes of Feleena
A7                              D
Wicked and evil while casting a spell
D                         Em
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden
A7                                 D
I was in love, but in vain I could tell
G                      C           G
One night a wild young cowboy came in
G                     D  D7
Wild as the West Texas wind
D7
Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing
D7                                   G
With wicked Feleena, the girl that I love
      A7
So in anger
D                              Em
I challenged his right for the love of this maiden
A7                                     D
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore
D                             Em
My challenge was answered, in less than a heartbeat
A7                                          D
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor
D                   Em
Just for a moment I stood there in silence
A7                                  D
Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done
D                            Em
Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there
A7                                   D   D7
I had but one chance and that was to run
G                            C         G
Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran
G                         D D7
Out where the horses were tied
D7
I caught a good one; it looked like it could run
D7                            G
Up on its back and away I did ride
        A7
Just as fast as I
D                           Em
Could from the West Texas town of El Paso
A7                             D
Out to the badlands of New Mexico
D                  Em
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless
A7                                    D
Everything's gone in life, nothing is left
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
G                  C        G
I saddled up and away I did go
G                  D  D7
Riding alone in the dark
D7
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me
D7                                           G
Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart
        A7
And at last here
  D                  Em
I am on the hill overlooking El Paso
A7                         D
I can see Rosa's Cantina below
D                        Em
My love is strong and it pushes me onward
A7                             D
Down off the hill to Feleena I go
D                     Em
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys
A7                    D
Off to my left ride a dozen and more
D                        Em
Shouting and shooting; I can't let them catch me
A7                                D   D7
I have to make it to Rosa's back door
G                       C           G
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
G                        D  D7
A deep burning pain in my side
D7
Though I am trying to stay in the saddle
D7                           G
I'm getting weary, unable to ride
       A7
But my love for
D                       Em
Feleena is strong and I rise where I've fallen
A7                                 D
Though I am weary, I can't stop to rest
D                       Em
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle
A7                              D
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest
D                       Em
From out of nowhere, Feleena has found me
A7                                   D
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side
D                     Em
Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for
A7                              D
One little kiss and Feleena goodbye
