The Devil sent you to Lorado
A
I still remember the piano,
E
Playing the same old melodies
D A
The late-night crowd was wild and loud
E A
But then a shot, outside the barroom
And then I saw you for the first time
E
The way you stepped out of the dark
D A
Up to the bar, say "Here we are,
E A E
Whiskey for me, for you Tequila"
A
The devil sent you to Lorado
E
Because he knew that I was there
A# man with such a face in such a lonesome place
A E
can only be, a Desperado
A
The devil sent you to Lorado
E
Because he knew that I was there
and when I heard you'd stay I felt right away
A
you shake my life, like a tornado
I still remember the piano,
E
Playing a different melody
D A
You won at cards, you won at darts
E A
Left all the men, without a dollar.
And now you gotta leave Lorado,
E
They want you out of here by noon
D A E A E
Oh, I can tell, I'm in a spell, so here we go, to Amarillo
A
The devil sent you to Lorado
E
Because he knew that I was there
A# man with such a face in such a lonesome place
A E
can only be, a Desperado
A
The devil sent you to Lorado
E
Because he knew that I was there
and when I heard you'd stay I felt right away
A
you shake my life like a tornado
