He looked down into her blue eyes, and said
5    5   -5   5  -4  3
Say a prayer for me. She
5     5   6    -5   5 -4   -4  5
Threw her arms around him, whispered
-5  -5    5   -5 5
God will keep us free

5     -5    6    6  6  -5  5  4    5  -5
They could hear the riders comin', He said
6    6  -6  6    -5    -4 5
This is my last fight. If they
-5   -5  -6  -6 6 5 -4 4 -4   5
Take me back to Texas,   they won't
-5   -5 5    -4 4
Take me back a-live

There were seven Spanish angels, at the
6  5  -5 5   -4
Altar of the sun
-4   5    6   6   -7  -6  6  -4   -4 5
They were prayin' for the lovers, in the
6   6  -6 6   5
Valley of the gun
5    -5  6   6  -6      6   6    6    5 -4 4
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
5     -5  6    6  -6   6   -5
There was thunder from the throne
4   -5 -5 -6  -6  6 5 -4 4 -4   5 -5  6
And seven spanish angels,  took a-nother
5 4 -4 4
Angel  home

4   -4       5   5   5      -4  -4  4
She reached down and picked the gun up
4    -4  5    5 -5  5  -4
That lay smokin in his hand
3    3    5    5   6    -5   5  -4
She said, Father please forgive me
-4  5   -5   -5  5  5   -5 5
I can't make it without my man
5   -5  6    6   6   -5  5 4
And she knew the gun was empty
5   -5   6   6   -6   6   -5
And she knew she couldn't win
-4  5   -5 -5 -6     -6  6 5 -4 4
But her final prayer was answered
-4   5   -5  -5  5    -4  4
When the rifles fired again
