King Of El PasoCifra de Viola

Intro: Gm7 

Verso 1:
 
Gm7     C 
About a million stars in that desert sky 
                                                Gm7 
So high and lonesome it can make you want to cry 

Or drive your young blood wild 
        C 
And a burning glow above that northern ridge 
                                                Gm7 
Three day ride will get you straight down to old Juarez 

A fool's El Dorado 


              Gm  N.C. 
He got a taste for Mescal and sweet perfume 
                Gm      N.C. 
Didn't take long to get him in the back room 
Gm 
All of sixteen and first taste of the border 


Verso 2:
 
Gm7        C 
There's a pile of bones out on the desert floor 
                                   Gm7 
All that's left of el Conquistador.. the conqueror 
        C 
Well I rode that beast down into the ground 

Through every draw and every border town 
        Gm7 
That devil carried me 


       Gm     N.C. 
You watch a few go down to the fire or the rope 
                  Gm    N.C.                   Gm 
 You leave little to chance and nothing to hope 
Gm7 
An old 24 and nothing could hold me down 
                    C 
(Ain't gonna ride no more) 
                        Gm7 
Ain't gonna ride no more 


Verso 3:
          C 
Well you cross it once you're gonna cross it again 
                                             Gm7 
Something keeps you coming back to that shadowland 

And so I did for the mysteries 
               C 
To hear that old soul stirrer slamming through the night 
                                        Gm7 
Tombstone train cuts its own daylight 

Ain't gonna ride no more 


               Gm         
Though my leathers torn and my cuffs in tatters 
           Gm    
My heads on straight and that's all that matters 
        Gm7      
If I lose a few moves it ain't no loss 
                  Gm   N.C. 
Cause there's only one border left for me to cross 
               C 
(Ain't gonna ride no more) 

I'll take my sweet time on that one 
C                     Gm7 
Ain't gonna ride no more 
               C 
(Ain't gonna ride no more) 
C                        Gm7 
Oh, I ain't gonna ride no more 

Gm7              C 
They call me King Of El Paso and my advice 
                                     Gm7 
Learn that road between here and paradise 
               C 
(Ain't gonna ride no more) 
                    Gm7 
Ain't gonna ride no more 


C  Gm7
