Verse
G# C#
In a bar room in Belfast, into his pint glass,
G# D#
Jack Campbell he sang as last orders were called.
G# C#
The bar stool was his mustang, he swayed as his wife sang,
G# D# G#
at the gunfire that rang around the O.K. Corrall
G# C#
Her name was Anita, he called her Rosalita,
G# D#
when the beer and the whiskey it went to his head.
G# C#
To him she's whisper "let's take a wee dander,
G# D# G#
to where we'll be cosy in our little homestead".
[Chorus]
C# G#
When the sun goes behind the black mountain,
D# G#
street demons come out to dance.
C# G#
And cowboys who sing about gunfights and Indians,
D# C# G#
against sub-machine guns they haven't a chance.
[Verse 2]
G# C#
As homeward they rambled, Rosalita and Jack Campbell
G# D#
called in to their local fast-food takeaway.
G# C#
As they danced round the chippie, singing yippee-aye-yippee
G# D# G#
the crowd in the queue answered Yippe-aye-yay!
G# C#
Till a car it came cruising, seeking a victim,
G# D#
Jack turned in confusion when he saw the gun.
G# C#
His last word was "Jesus..." the trigger was squeazed
G# D# G#
Jack fell to his knees and the car it was gone.
[Chorus]
C# G#
When the sun goes behind the black mountain,
D# G#
street demons come out to dance.
C# G#
And cowboys who sing about gunfights and Indians,
D# C# G#
against sub-machine guns they haven't a chance.
[Verse 3]
G# C#
The years passed over, behind her closed door,
G# D#
Anita she sank into Prozac and gin.
G# C#
Her nights and her days spent in a haze
G# D# G#
down the lonesome road thinking what might have been.
G# C# G#
Rosalita, the dark senorita, still waiting to hear
G# D#
from Jack Campbell her man.
G# C#
He whispers to her "let's ride into the sunset"
G# D# G#
Heaven's only one step from the old Rio Grande
[Chorus]
C# G#
When the sun goes behind the black mountain,
D# G#
street demons come out to dance.
C# G#
And cowboys who sing about gunfights and Indians,
D# C# G#
against sub-machine guns they haven't a chance.
[Verse 4]
C# G#
And way out beyond the black mountain,
D# G#
Rosalita and Jack Campbell dance,
C# G#
Where troubles and old songs are forgotten and gone,
D# C# G#
And dreamers still hold onto love and romance.
