Chords:
A E A
Born under a south Kentucky sky
D E A
He'd come west to Mexico to fight
D
1842 at Mier
A F#m
The gutters filled with blood and fear
A E A
Barely made it back to Texas alive
A E A
With Missouri Volunteers when the war began
D E A
In '46 they crossed the Rio Grande
D
There he met his dark-eyed love
A F#m
But said good bye when the war was done
A E A
He swore that he'd come back for her again
D F#m A
Oh oh novia
F#m E A
Oh oh your man is gone
D
Maybe he's in Texas
A F#m
But we'll take what God has left us
A E A
And we'll leave for California with the dawn
A E A
Worked his way back to Old Mexico
D E A
To reclaim the love he'd left two years ago
D
Back to those same city walls
A F#m
Where he'd watched copper cannonballs
A E A
Like wayward suns roll down the cobblestones
A E A
They put him in a prison left alone
D E A
With other yankee fools so far from home
D
Parade them through the square in chains
A F#m
'Till in rode Captain Glanton's gang
A E A
Apache scalps for bounties paid in gold
D F#m A
Oh oh novia
F#m E A
Oh oh your man is gone
D
Maybe he's in Texas
A F#m
But we'll take what God has left us
A E A
And we'll leave for California with the dawn
A E A
Glanton's men were killers all by trade
D E A
And through the prison bars a deal was made
D
Glanton needed three new men
A F#m
He hired the lovelorn veteran
A E A
The killers rode out through the governor's gates
A E A
The Veteran left camp 'fore the rising sun
D E A
No killer he'd left all their work undone
D
He was not yet two days out
A F#m
When Glanton's naked native scouts
A E A
Brought back his empty horse and his brand new gun
D F#m A
Oh oh novia
F#m E A
Oh oh your man is gone
D
Maybe he's in Texas
A F#m
But we'll take what God has left us
A E A
And we'll leave for California with the dawn
D F#m A
Oh oh novia
F#m E A
Oh oh your man is gone
D
Maybe he's in Texas
A F#m
But we'll take what God has left us
A E A
And we'll leave for California with the dawn
