Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

G A EmAGAD

DCarlos Zara/goza left his /home in Casas /Grandes when

the Emmoon was full///

No Amoney in his /pocket, just a /locket of his /sister

framed in Dgold///

He /rode into El /Sueco, stole a /rooster called /Gallo

Del CiEmelo///

Then he Aswam the Rio /Grande with that Gfighter nestled

Adeep beneath his Darm.///

El DGallo Del Ci/elo was a /rooster born in /heaven so the

Emlegends say///

His Awings they had been /broken, he had /one eye

rollin' /crazy in his Dhead///

And he'd /fought a hundred fights, /and the /legends say

that /one night near El EmSueco///

They'd Afought Gallo /seven times, and Gseven times he'd

Aleft brave roosters Ddead./

GHola, my The/resa, I am /thinking of you /now in San

AnAtonio///

I have Em27 Adollars and the Emgood luck of your /picture

framed in Agold/

GTonight I'll put it /all on the /fighting spurs of /Gallo

Del CiAelo///

And then EmI'll return to Abuy the land GVilla stole

from Afather long Dago.///

OutDside of San Di/ego, in the /onion fields of /Paco

MonteEmverde///

The APride of San Di/ego lay /sleeping on a /fancy bed of

Dsilk///

And they /laughed when Zara/goza pulled the /one-eyed

del Ci/elo from Embeneath his coat///

But they Acried when Zara/goza walked aGway with a

Athousand dollar Dbill./

GHola, my The/resa, I am /thinking of you /now in

Santa ABarbara///

I have Emfifteen hundred Adollars and the Emgood luck of

your /picture framed in Agold/

GTonight I'll /put it all on the /fighting spurs of /Gallo

Del CiAelo///

And then EmI'll return to Abuy the land GVilla stole

from Afather long Dago.///

Now the Dmoon has gone to /hiding and the /lantern light

spills /shadows on a Emfighting sand///

Where a Awicked black named /Zorro faces /Gallo del Ci/elo

in the Dnight///

But /Carlos Zara/goza fears the /tiny crack that /runs

across his Emrooster's beak///

And he Afears he has /lost the fifty Gthousand dollars

Ariding on the Dfight./

GHola, my The/resa, I am /thinking of you /now in

Santa AClara///

Yes, the Emmoney's on the Atable, I am Emholding to

your /good luck framed in Agold/

And Geverything we've /dreamed of is /riding on the /spurs

of Del CiAelo///

I pray that EmI'll return to Abuy the land GVilla stole

from Afather long Dago.///

Then the Dsignal it was /given, and the /cocks rose

to/gether far Emabove the sand///

El AGallo del Ci/elo sunk a /gaff into /Zorro's shiny

Dbreast///

They were /separated /quickly but they /rose and fought

each /other thirty Emseven times///

And the Alegends say that /everyone Gagreed that del

CiAelo fought the Dbest.///

Then the Dscreams of Zara/goza filled the /night outside

the /town of Santa EmClara///

As the Abeak of del Ci/elo lay /broken like a /shell within

his Dhand///

And they /say that Zara/goza screamed a /curse upon the

/bones of Pancho EmVilla///

When AZorro rose up /one last time and Gdrove del

CiAelo through the Dsand./

GHola, my The/resa, I am /thinking of you /now in

San FranAcisco///

I have no Emmoney in my Apocket, I no Emlonger have

your /good luck framed in Agold/

I Gburied it last /evening with the /bones of my

/beloved Del CiAelo///

And I'll Emnot return to Abuy the land GVilla stole from

Afather long Dago./

Do the Grivers still run /muddy out/side of my /beloved

Casas AGrandes?///

oes the Emscar upon my Abrother's face turn Emred when

he hears /mention of my Aname?/

Do the Gpeople of El /Sueco /curse the theft of /Gallo

del CiAelo?///

Well, Emtell my family Anot to worry, GI will not Areturn

to cause them Dshame./
