EL PASO!!!

A G D 4x

A                             G          D
It was early in the morning 'bout nine to nine
A                                          G       D
We were driving through the night near the Mexican line
G
They said we caught you red
D
We can shoot you dead
A                                               D
So tell us what you got or get a bullet in your head

CHORUS:
        G                   D
Got the arrested in El Paso blues
A                           D
Throw out the drugs and the booze
        G                   D
Got the arrested in El Paso blues
      A                                      D
We've only got our rights and our freedom to lose

Solo: A G D 2x

           A                        G        D
They confiscated our green and they took our dough
     A              G  D
They arrested us in El Paso
            G                  D
Now they're pattin us down and kickin our shoes
A                                                D
Readin us our rights got the arrested in El Paso blues


CHORUS

            A                           G         D
They got my worldly possessions thrown about the floor
    A                                  G       D
And I don't think we're gonna make the show no more
   Bm                  D           Em          G             
So don't you mess with Texas from experience I know
    Bm                     G    A         D
And steer far clear of the U.S. border patrol

Solo: D G D A Bm G D A

CHORUS 2x
