Cancion De Amor Y Muerte (R.W. Hampton)
(Song of love and death)
4/4
(G) Tonight alone I'm (D7) waiting
Waiting for the (G) moonlight
To drive away the (C) darkness
From this cold gray (G) cell
At last its light has (C) found me
Prison bars that (G) surround me
Have vanished and (C) died
Ride once more (D7) the canyon (G) trails
(G) Way down in the (D7) valley
By the Rio (G) Hondo
Everynight I (D7) go
I go back there in my (G) dreams
All the leaves are (C) turning
With love my heart is (G) burning
For the one that I (D7) know
In the moonlight waits for (G) me
(G) I am but a (D7) cowboy
From the foot of the (G) Cristos
Who somehow turned (C) outlaw
By the swiftness of a (G) gun
One night an old (C) pe'cocho
This devil man they call El (G) Goncho
Placed evil hands on my (C) Marina
He payed dearly for his (G) fun
(G) Way down in the (D7) valley
By the Rio (G) Hondo
Everynight I (D7) go
I go back there in my (G) dreams
We'll walk along (C) together
And we'll pledge our love (G) forever
For I know with the (D7) sunrise
That our love will never (G) be
(Pause) At last moons shadows fading (D7)
Big cottonwood stands (G) waiting
As light streaks across (C) the east
They'll come and carry me (G) away
But in this short time that I've (C) got left
I've got time for one more (G) memory trip
For when we're (C) together
It always seems to ease the (G) pain
(G) Way down in the (D7) valley
By the Rio (G) Hondo
Everynight I (D7) go
I go back there in my (G) dreams
We'll walk along (C) together
And we'll pledge our love (G) forever
For I know with the (D7) sunrise
That our love will never (G) be
