Romance In Durango Chords

[Verse 1]
D                                   A
Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
                       G   D
Dust on my face and my cape,
                        A
Me and Magdalena on the run
                              G   D
I think this time we shall escape.
 
[Verse 2]
D                             A
Sold my guitar to the baker's son
                              G   D
For a few crumbs and a place to hide,
                       A
But I can get another one
                                  G  D
And I'll play for Magdalena as we ride.
 
[Chorus]
    A
    No llores, mi querida
 
    Dios nos vigila
                                     G  D
    Soon the horse will take us to Durango.
      A
    Agarrame, mi vida
 
    Soon the desert will be gone
                                    G  D
    Soon you will be dancing the fandango.
 
[Verse 3]
D                                         A
Past the Aztec ruins and the ghosts of our people
                            G    D
Hoofbeats like castanets on stone
                                         A
At night I dream of bells in the village steeple
                              G    D
Then I see the bloody face of Ramon
 
[Verse 4]
D                                       A
Was it me that shot him down in the cantina
                             G  D
Was it my hand that held the gun
                          A
Come, let us fly, my Magdalena
                                        G   D
The dogs are barking and what's done is done
 
[Chorus]
       A
    No llores, mi querida
 
    Dios nos vigila
                                     G  D
    Soon the horse will take us to Durango.
      A
    Agarrame, mi vida
 
    Soon the desert will be gone
                                    G  D
    Soon you will be dancing the fandango.
 
[Verse 5]
D                                  A
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade
                                  G   D
And watch the young torero stand alone
                                           A
We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed
                                  G   D
When they rode with Villa into Torreon
 
[Verse 6]
D                                          A
Then the padre will recite the prayers of old
                                   G  D
In the little church this side of town
                                          A
I will wear new boots and an earring of gold
                                           G   D
You'll shine with diamonds in your wedding gown
 
[Verse 7]
D                                A
The way is long but the end is near
                        G   D
Already the fiesta has begun
                        A
The face of God will appear
                          G    D
With His serpent eyes of obsidian
 
[Chorus]
     A
    No llores, mi querida
 
    Dios nos vigila
                                     G  D
    Soon the horse will take us to Durango.
      A
    Agarrame, mi vida
 
    Soon the desert will be gone
                                    G  D
    Soon you will be dancing the fandango.
 
[Verse 8]
D                             A
Was that the thunder that I heard
                                     G  D
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
                              A
Come sit by me, don't say a word
                         G   D
Oh, can it be that I am slain
 
[Verse 9]
D                           A
Quick, Magdalena, take my gun
                                     G  D
Look up in the hills, that flash of light
                    A
Aim well my little one
                               G   D
We may not make it through the night
 
[Chorus]
     A
    No llores, mi querida
 
    Dios nos vigila
                                     G  D
    Soon the horse will take us to Durango.
      A
    Agarrame, mi vida
 
    Soon the desert will be gone
                                    G  D
    Soon you will be dancing the fandango.
