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