                   Dm7           A7
Well there's a new gunslinger in Juarez town
Dm7                        A7
Fallin' for a raven-haired girl he found
      Dm7                    A7
Their heat is strong but she wears a ring
Dm7                  A7
That kinda love is a killin' thing

 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Their eyes are shinin' bright
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Dancin' in the moonlight
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) And they ain't livin' in the shadows
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Down in old Juarez

         Dm7                    A7
He don't care about danger with his kinda love
      Dm7                  A7
Goin' six feet under or in heaven above
Dm7                A7
. She can live but he must die
    Dm7                A7
Her old time lover was livin' a lie

 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Their eyes are shinin' bright
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Dancin' in the moonlight
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) And they ain't livin' in the shadows
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Down in old Juarez

Gm7                                     Am7 Dm7 (D7sus2/A) Dm7
Back in the bar you don't see a tear in her eye
    Gm7                    F                       |A7  |
She stands there thinkin', drinkin' to her last goodbye
| A7            | Dm7 | Dm7 G/D |
 (Tell me baby)

| Dm7 | Dm7 G/D | Dm7 | Dm7 G/D | Dm7 | Dm7 G/D |

       Dm7
In the nighttime the heat is risin'

Out in the street her eyes burnin' bright

Down in old Juarez

| Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 |
| Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 | Dm7 | A7 |

 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Their eyes are shinin' bright
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh)
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Watchin'(?) in the shadows
 Dm7       A7
(Oh, oh oh oh) Down in old Juarez
