Verse 1
A city with a legend,
F
C
West Texas City of El Paso
Well, long ago I heard a song
F
C
about a Texas cowboy and a girl
At a little place called Roses
I don't recall who sang the song
F
C
G
C
but I recall the story that I heard
And as I look down on the city,
F
C
I remember each and every word
G
C
To kill another cowboy,
G
C
then he had to leave El Paso on the run
F
C
El Paso City, part of the old land
But love was strong, he couldn't stay
F
C
El Paso City, by the Rio Grande
But still I find there's such
a mystery in this song
My mind is down there somewhere
F
C
As I fly above the badlands of New Mexico
I can't explain why I should know the
F
C
very trail he rode back to El Paso
And does the mystery even go to think
Somewhere in my deepest thoughts
F
C
Familiar scenes and memories unfold
G
C
These wild and
unexplained emotions
F
C
That I've had so long, I have never told
Like every time I fly
G
C
I get the feeling
in this mystery
That dive there in that desert sand
Another voice keeps telling me
