I Did What I Did for Maria Tony Christie
Verse 1
[G]Sun rise, this is the last day that [C]I'll ever see
Out in the courtyard they're [G]ready for me
But I [D]go to my Lord with no [G]fear
'Cause I [D]did what I did for Ma[G]ria[G]
Verse 2
As I [D]rode into town with the [G]sun going down
All the [D]windows were barred there was [G]no-one around
For they [D]knew that I'd come with my [G]hand on my gun
And re[D]venge in my heart for Mar[G]ia, my [D]dearest departed Mar[G]ia
Chorus
Take an [D]eye for an eye and a [G]life for a life
And some[D]body must die for the [G]death of my wife
Yes, I [D]did what I did for Ma[G]ria
I [D]did what I did for Ma[G]ria[G]
Verse 3
[G]Laughter echoed across from the [C]end of the street
There was the man I was [G]burning to meet
And my [D]mind was so calm and so [G]clear
As I [D]took my revenge for Ma[G]ria
Verse 4
And he [D]fell to the ground, raisin' [G]dust all around
But I [D]knew he was dead long be[G]fore he went down
It was [D]quick it, was clean, made it [G]easy on him
Which is [D]more than he did for Ma[G]ria
When he [D]did what he did to Ma[G]ria
Chorus
Take an [D]eye for an eye and a [G]life for a life
And some[D]body must die for the [G]death of my wife
Yes, I [D]did what I did for Ma[G]ria
I [D]did what I did for Ma[G]ria[D] [G] [D] [G] [G]
Repeat verse 1
[G]Sun rise, this is the last day that [C]I'll ever see
