[Verso 1]
Dm Bb
One day in El Paso
F C
The cops go into the crowd
Dm Bb
Under a glaring bladder of light
F C
And the music is so loud
Dm Bb
And the tourists take their T-shirts off
F C
A busload of kids gives you the finger
Dm Bb
Afternoon when the sidewalk's hot
F C
And the shadow's too chilly to linger
Dm Bb
Walk past damaged goods and ugly trends
F C
Past a strawman making a purchase
Dm Bb
Downtown where the river bends
F C
They're just waiting for you to resurface
[Refrão]
Dm Bb
Take a look at this photograph
F C
Clearly, his teeth were bared
Dm Bb
He could've been yawning or snarling
F C
The story was never clear
{Post Chorus Instrumnetal Break}

Dm Bb
One night in El Paso
F C
The cops go into the crowd
Dm Bb
Under a throbbing bladder of light
F C
And the music is just so loud
Dm Bb
And the tourists turn their TVs off
F C
And a bat sees the bug with the sound of a linger
Dm Bb
Night time when the shadows cough
F C
And you're chilled to the tips of your fingers
Dm Bb
Walk past damaged goods and ugly trends
F C
Past ol' strawman making a purchase
Dm Bb
Downtown where the river bends
F C
They're just waiting for you to resurface
[Refrão]
Dm Bb
Take a look at this photograph
F C
Clearly, his teeth were bared
Dm Bb
He could've been yawning or snarling
F C
This could've been anywhere
