El Paso - Out On The Weekend

	  		
A                      Bm                 E7 
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso - I fell in love with a 
         A                                  Bm 
Mexican girl.    Nighttime would find me in Rose's Cantina, 
 E7                                 A 
Music would play and Felina would twirl. 

D                       A          D                A 
One night a wild young cowboy came in - Wild as the West Texas 
A7                                              A 
wind.     Dashing and daring, a drink they were sharing, 
                                 D 
With wicked Felina, the girl that I love. 

E7                 A                           Bm 
So in anger - I challenged his right for the heart of Felina 
E7                                     A 
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore. 
A                                 Bm 
My challenge was answered, in no less than a heartbeat 
E7                                          A 
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor. 

 D                            A         D                 A 
Out through the back door of Rose's I ran, Out where the horses 
     A7 
were tied. I found a good one; it looked like it could run, 
                             D       E 
Up on its back and away I did ride ----> 

    A                         Bm 
    Now I think I’ll buy me a pick-up 
    E               A 
    Make it out to L.A. 
    A                          Bm 
    Find a little place and try to fix up. 
    E                A 
    Start a brand new day. 

  Bm   E   Bm   E        C#m  F#7  Bm   E 

    A                           Bm 
    She got pictures on the wall, they make me look up 
    E                   A 
    From her big brass bed. 
    A                             Bm 
    Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up 
    E                   A 
    Somewhere in her head. 

    A                               Bm 
    The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up 
    E                 A 
    But I'm so down today she's so fine, she's in my mind, 
    Bm                 E 
    I   hear her callin'. 

    A                          Bm             D               A 
    See the lonely boy, out on the weekend - Trying to make it pay. 
    A                        Bm                  D             A 
    Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and - Can't begin to say. 

A                         Bm 
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel as I crumble 
                       A                      Bm 
A deep burning pain in my side and blood everywhere 
 E7                                           A 
I’m crumbled I see Felina she kneels down by my side 
   E                                                   D    E   A 
Once more in the arms of my loved one and kiss Felina goodbye 

   A                          Bm             D               A 
   See the lonely boy, out on the weekend - Trying to make it pay. 
   A                        Bm                  D             A 
   Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and - Can't begin to say. 

A                      Bm             E               A   (x4) 


It works and it's --> Wild!
