Key: B minor

Intro 1

Verse 1
Em Em 
 
You sit at the table,
tequila before you
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
And you laugh and you joke with the crowd
In your heart there begins
just a trickle of fear
D D 
 
G G 
 
That don't show in your features so proud
D D 
 
So many times you face
G G 
 
this moment of truth
D D 
 
G G 
 
In the world of the bull and the sky
Em Em 
 
You will nev er admit
what you know in your heart
D D 
 
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
In the arena tomorrow you'll die
When you were a machacho
back in Chihuahua City
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
And Tina first helped you to steal
When you lived by your wits
and a shoeshine kit
D D 
 
And you knew what it was
G G 
 
to miss a meal
D D 
 
You've got your breaks,
and after months of prepara
G G 
 
tion for the ring
D D 
 
Came the year when you wore
G G 
 
the victor's crown
Em Em 
 
Just as you reached your peak,
she told you each night in her sleep
D D 
 
She dreamed mañana the bull
G G 
 
would bring you down
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
Tomorrow the bull would
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
bring you down
Can you raise from the table
and declare you won't fight
Face the laughter and your
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
friend's ridicule
Can you swallow your pride
and walk out into the night
D D 
 
G G 
 
And be called a coward and a fool?
D D 
 
G G 
 
No, you'll have to die in the arena
D D 
 
And your blood on the sand
G G 
 
will have to flow
D D 
 
You'll have to die and
Em Em 
 
your Tina will find love
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
In the arms of a man you don't know
G G 
 
Adios, Matador,
Em Em 
 
is your life to be wasted?
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
Will you soon be a poor twisted thing?
G G 
 
Oh, it's better to face death
Em Em 
 
than live in disgrace
G G 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
I guess you'll have to die in the ring
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
G G 
 
I guess you'll have to die in the ring
G# G# 
 
Bb Bb 
 
Adios, matador
G G 
 
B B 
 
Em Em 
 
Adios matador
Hat toro
Bill toro
