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