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 Rose's Cantina,
A7                                D
Music would play and Felina would whirl.

D                           Em
Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina,
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                      D           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 Felina, 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
I had but one chance and that was to run.


G                            D         G
Out through the back door of Rose'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
My love is stronger that my fear of death.

G                  D        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 as last here

  D                  Em
I am on the hill overlooking El Paso,
A7                         D
I can see Rose's Cantina below.
D                        Em
My love is strong and it pushes me onward,
A7                            D
Down off the hill to Felina 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
I have to make it to Rose's back door.

G                       D           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
Felina 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, Felina 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 Felina goodbye.
