Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Did you ever hear the story
That [G]happened not [Am]long [Em]ago
'Bout the man with a tan:
El di[G]ablo de Mex[Am]ico?
[Em]And this man p[Am]layed his hand
And he lived by the luck
of [Em]the draw;
Now and then and again,
Found him [G]steppin' outside [Am]of th[Em]e law
Hey, [B]hey!
[Em][D][A][G]

[Verse 2]
And his [Em]fortune he had made
let him [G]live [Em]high on the hog
Til the day of the raid
When they [G]hunted him [Am]like a [Em]dog.
He was [Am]out on the run,
Knowing he could get [Em]by,
'Cause the men killed in sin
were [G]not there to testify.

[Interlude 1]
Hey, hey!

[Verse 3]
He was [Em]caught, he was bound
In La [G]Casa de [Am]Cala[Em]boose.
He was tried; he was found
[G]And readied [Am]for the [Em]noose.
But the [Am]break he would make,
It [G]didn't turn [Am]out so [Em]well.
And the hombre called "Diablo"
[G]Bid his [A]last [Em]farewell.
