G C
This is the story of El Lute
G
a man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
D G
because he was poor but he refused to accept his fate
and today his honour has been restored.

D C G
[Verse 1]
G
He was only nineteen and was sentenced to die
C Am
for something that somebody else did and blamed on El Lute.
Then they changed it to life and so he could escape
D
from then on they chased him and searched for him day and night
G D D7 G
all over Spain but the search was in vain for El Lute.
[Chorus]
G7 C G
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
D D7
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
G G7
in a country where all would be free.
C G
So he taught himself to read and to write it didn't help El Lute
D D7
he was one who had dared to escape overnight
C G
they had to find El Lute.

[Bridge]
Gm D
Soon the fame of his name spread like wild fire all over the land
Cm
with a price on his head people still gave him bread
D Gm
and they gave him a hand
D G
for they knew he was right and his fight was their fight.
[Verse 2]
G
No one gave you a chance in the Spain of those days
C Am
on the walls every place they had put up the face of El Lute.
And he robbed where he could just like once Robin Hood
D
they finally caught him and that seemed the end.
G D
But they caught him in vain 'cause a change came for Spain
G
and El Lute.
[Chorus]
G7 C G
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
D D7
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
G G7
in a country where all would be free.
C G
And then freedom really came to his land and also to El Lute
D D7
Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day
C G
The man they called El Lute
[Outro]
G7 C G
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
D D7
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
G G7
in a country where all would be free.
