FREEZING IN EL PASO
As recorded by Bobby Bare
(From the 1970 Album THIS IS BARE COUNTRY)
[Intro]
A7 D
[Verse 1]
A Bm
I can hear the footsteps walkin' by my bedside Lord she's leavin'
G A D
I can smell her perfume driftin' through my room
A7 Bm
If I try to make her stay I'd know she couldn't even hear me
E7 A7
Might as well be on the darkside of the Moon
[Chorus]
G A D
'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer
E7 A7
All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine
G A7 D Bm
Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around
G A D
Wish her winter hadn't spoilt my summertime
[Guitar Solo]
A7 D
[Verse 2]
A Bm
So when her plane takes off for Memphis I'll be sittin' in some tavern
G A D
I'll be washin' out the corners of my mind
A7 Bm
When she's in the wild blue yonder I'll be feedin' that old jukebox
E7 A7
Playin' every happy song that I can find
[Chorus]
G A D
'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer
E7 A7
All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine
G A7 D Bm
Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around
G A D
Wish her winter hadn't spoilt my summertime
[Outro]
G A7
Mmmmmmmmm
