Verse 1
D

Out in the
Em

West Texas town of El Paso,
A
D

I fell in love with a Mexican girl.

Nighttime would find me
Em

in Rose's Cantina
A

Music would play and Felina
D
A
D

would whir

Black earth and night were
Em

the eyes of Felina
A
D

Wicked and evil while cast in a spell
Asus4
D

My love was deep
Em

for this Mexican maiden,
A
D

I was in love but in vain I could tell.
G

One night a wild young cowboy came in,
D

wild as the West Texas wind.

Dashin' and darin' a
A
D

drink he was sharin'
A
D
G

With wicked Felina, the girl that I love
A
D

So in anger, I challenged his right
Em

For the love of this laden
A

Down with his hand for
D

the gun that he wore

My challenge was answered
Em

in less than a heartbeat
A

The handsome young stranger
D

lay dead on the floor
A
D
Em

Just for a moment I stood

there in silence
A

Shocked by the foul evil
D

deed I had done
Em

Many thoughts raced through my mind

as I stood there
A
D

I had but one chance and that was to run
G

Out through the back door of Roses I ran
D

Out where the horses were tied

I caught a good one,

it looked like it could run
G

Up on its back and away I did ride
A

Just as fast as I could
D
Em

from the West Texas town of El Paso
A

Out to the badlands of New Mexico
D

Back at El Paso,
Em

my life would be worthless
A

Everything good in life,
D

nothing is left
Asus4
D

It's been so long since
Em

I've seen the young baby
A
D

My love is stronger than my fear of death
G

I settled up and away I did go
D

Riding alone in the dark

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me

Tonight nothing's worse
G

than this pain in my heart
A
D

And at last here I am
Em

on the hill overlooking El Paso,
A
D

I can see Rose's Cantina below.

My love is strong and it
Em

pushes me onward,
A
D

down off the hill to Felina I go.

Off to my right,
Em

I see five mounted cowboys
A

Off to my left,
D

right a dozen or more

Shouting and shooting,
Em

I can 't let them catch me
A

I have to make it to Rose's
D

back door
G

Something is dreadfully wrong, for I feel
D

A deep burning pain in my side

Though I am trying to stay in this saddle
G

I'm getting weary, unable to ride
A
D

But my love for a fool is strong
Em

And I rise where I've fallen
A
D

Though I am weary, I can't stop the rest

I see the white blip of smoke
Em

from the rifle.
A
D

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest.

From out of nowhere
Em

Felina has found me.
A

Kissing my cheek
D

as she kneels by my side.

Cradled by two loving arm
Em

s that I'd die for,
A

One little kiss and Felina, goodbye.
D

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
