Ballad of Cable Hogue Calexico
Couplets
[Am]I live out yonder where the snakes [G]and scorpions run[Am]
[Am]got myself a little goldmine [G]to bank on
[Dm]one day my heart sank when I saw M[Am]adame in town
I [Am]knew her [G]love wou[F]ld be the death of mi[Am]ne
L'amour passé, l'amour obGète.
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur?
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique.
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars.
Refrain
c G
Do me a Favor while I'm hanging here
c Am
Take this gold and go and hide
[Am]ne gigote pas chéri sur ta co[G]rde pen[Am]due
cn't wor[Am]ry I'l[G]l be[F] free in no ti[Am]me.
Jouer un couplet sans chanter
Couplet 3
[Am]She promised me she would be ther[G]e when I'd return[Am]
[Am]she didn't say she'd have a army th[G]ere as well
[Dm]she whispered, "J'taime Baby," as she fired that[Am] gun at me.
[Am]mais[G] je[F] n'ai plus de temps[Am]
Refrain
c G
I should've stayed way out yonder
c Am
better off with the scorpi-ons and snakes
[Am]Every act which has no heart will be found out i[G]n the end[Am]
Yes [Am]I'm [G]a l[F]ittle l[Am]ate this time,
cause her lo[Am]ve wo[G]uld[F] be the death of [Mim]mine,
mine, all mi[Am]ne
