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 D7

I was in love, but in vain I could tell.

 

One night a wild young cowboy came in,

G D D7

Wild as the West Texas wind.

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.

 

Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran,

G D D7

Out where the horses were tied.

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.

 

I saddled up and away I did go,

G D D7

Riding alone in the dark.

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.

 

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel

G D D7

A deep burning pain in my side.

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.

Pessoalmente, eu toco isso transposto dois semitons abaixo, então os acordes principais são Dó, Ré menor e Sol7. Ao fazer isso, a introdução altamente reconhecível envolve dedilhar Dó, Ré menor e Sol7, seguido por um Ré menor com pestana (6ª casa), Sol com pestana, Fá e Dó. Além disso, o importantíssimo final, após a palavra "goodbye", é tocado em um acorde de Dó, mas martelando a nota Lá (2ª casa na 4ª corda (Sol)). Ouça a original e você conseguirá facilmente descobrir isso.

Meu pai costumava cantar essa música quando eu era jovem. Ele conseguia imitar Marty com perfeição.
