Verse 1
E
Out in New Mexico,
many long years ago
There in a shack on the desert,
B7
one night in a storm
Amid streaks of lightnin'
and loud desert thunder
To a young Mexican couple,
E
a baby was born
E
Just as the baby cried,
thunder and lightnin' died
E7
Moon gave its light to the world
A
and the stars did the same
Mother and Father,
E
both proud of the daughter
That heaven had sent them,
B7
E
Feleena was this baby's name
Verse 2
E
When she was seventeen,
bothered by crazy dreams
She ran away from the shack
B7
and left them to roam
Father and Mother,
both asked one another
What made her run away,
E
what made Feleena leave home?
E
Tired of the desert nights,
poverty, grief, and strife
E7
She went her way late one night
A
in the moon's golden gleam
E
She didn't know where she'd go,
but she'd get there
And she would find happiness,
B7
E
if she would follow her dream
Verse 3
E
After she ran away,
she went to Santa Fe
And in the year that she stayed there,
B7
she learned about life
In just a little while,
she learned that with a smile
She could have pretty clothes,
E
she could be any man's wife
E
Rich men romanced her,
they dined and they danced her
She understood men
E7
A
and she treated them all just the same
A form that was fine and rare,
E
dark shining glossy hair
Lovely to look at
B7
E
Feleena was this woman's name
Verse 4
E
Restless in Santa Fe,
she had to get away
To any town where the lights
B7
had a much brighter glow
One cowboy mentioned
the town of El Paso
They never stopped dancin'
E
and money like whiskey did flow
E
She bought a one-way,
a ticket from Santa Fe
E7
Three days and nights on a stage
A
with a rest now and then
She didn't mind that,
E
she knew she would find that
B7
Her new life would be more exciting
E
than where she had been
Verse 5
E
The stage made its last stop,
up there on the mountaintop
And let her see all of the lights
B7
at the foot of the hill
Her world was brighter
and deep down inside her
An uncontrolled beating,
E
her young heart just wouldn't be still
E
She got a hotel,
a room at the Lily Belle
Quickly she changed
E7
A
to a form-fitting black satin dress
Ev'ry man stopped to stare
E
at this form fine and rare
Even the women
B7
E
remarked of the charm she possessed
Verse 6
E
Dancin' and laughter
was what she was after
And Rosa's Cantina had lights,
B7
with love in the gleam
That's what she hunted
and that's what she wanted
Rosa's was one place,
E
a nice girl would never be seen
E
It was the same way it was back in Santa Fe
E7
Men would make fools of themselves
A
at the thought of romance
Rosa took heed of,
E
the place was in need of
This kind of excitement,
B7
E
so she paid Feleena to dance
Verse 7
E
A year passed and maybe more
and then through the swingin' doors
Came a young cowboy so tall
B7
and so handsomely dressed
This one was new in town,
hadn't been seen around
He was so different,
E
he wasn't like all of the rest
E
Feleena danced close to him,
then threw a rose to him
E7
Quickly he walked to her table
A
and there he sat down
And in a day or so,
E
wherever folks would go
They'd see this young cowboy,
B7
E
showin' Feleena the town
Verse 8
E
Six weeks he went with her,
each minute spent with her
But he was insanely jealous
B7
of glances she'd give
Inside he was a-hurtin',
from all of her flirtin'
That was her nature
E
and that was the way that she lived
E
She flirted one night,
it started a gun-fight
E7
And after the smoke cleared away
A
on the floor lay a man
Feleena's young lover
E
had shot down another
And he had to leave there,
B7
E
so out through the back door he ran
Verse 9
E
The next day at five o'clock,
she heard a rifle shot
Quickly she ran to the door,
B7
that was facin' the pass
She saw her cowboy,
her wild-ridin' cowboy
Low in the saddle,
E
her cowboy was ridin' in fast
E
She ran to meet him,
to kiss and to greet him him
E7
He saw her and motioned her back,
A
with a wave of his hand
Bullets were flyin',
E
Feleena was cryin'
B7
As she saw him fall from the saddle
E
and into the sand
Verse 10
E
Faleena knelt near him,
to hold and to hear him
When she felt the warm blood
B7
that flowed from the wound in his side
He raised to kiss her
and she heard him whisper
"Never forget me
E
Faleena, it's over, goodbye"
E
Quickly she grabbed for
the six-gun that he wore
And screamin' in anger
E7
A
and placin' the gun to her breast
"Bury us both deep
E
and maybe we'll find peace"
And pullin' the trigger,
B7
E
she fell 'cross the dead cowboy's chest
Verse 11
E
Out in El Paso,
whenever the wind blows
If you listen closely at night,
B7
you'll hear in the wind
A woman is cryin',
it's not the wind sighin'
Old- timers tell you,
E
Feleena is callin' for him
E
You'll hear them talkin'
and you'll hear them walkin'
E7
You'll hear them laugh and you'll look,
A
but there's no one around
Don't be alarmed,
E
there is really no harm there
It's only the young cowboy,
B7
E
showin' Feleena the town
