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
