El Paso City Marty Robbins

Lyrics and guitar chords

  • Guitar chords Novice
C F C F C

From Cthirty thousand feet above the Fdesert floor, I see it there Cbelow
A city with a legend -F the west Texas city of El CPaso
Where long ago I heard a song Fabout a Texas cowboy and a Cgirl
And a little place called Rosa's, where he Gused to go and watch this beauty Cwhirl.

I don't recall who sang the song, but FI recall the story that I Cheard
And as I look down on the city, FI remember each and every Cword
The singer sang about a jealous Fcowboy, and the way he used a Cgun
To kill another cowboy then he Ghad to leave El Paso on the Crun.


El Paso FCity, by the Rio CGrande
The Gcowboy lived and rode away

But love was strong he couldn't stay
He rode back just to die in that El CPaso sand
El Paso FCity, by the Rio CGrande
I Gtry not to let you cross my mind
But still I find there's such a mystery in the song that I don't Cunderstand.


My Cmind is down there somewhere, as I Ffly above the badlands of New CMexico
I can't explain why I should know, the Fvery trail he rode back to El CPaso
Can it be that man can disaFppear from life and live another Ctime
And does the mystery deepen 'cause you Gthink that you yourself lived in that other Ctime.

Somewhere in my deepest thoughts, Ffamiliar scenes and memories uCnfold
These wild and unexplained emotions Fthat I've had so long but I have Cnever told
Like every time I fly up thru the Fheavens and I see you there Cbelow
I get the feeling sometime in Ganother world I lived in El CPaso.


El PasFo City, by the RiCo Grande
GCould it be that I could be the cowboy in this mystery
That died there in that desert sand so Clong ago
El Paso FCity, by the Rio CGrande
A Gvoice tells me to go and see

Another voice keeps tellin' me
Maybe death awaits me in El CPaso
El Paso FCity...
