Adios, my friend, we're leaving El Paso

All the Rio Grande's gone bone dry and all the stories have been told

On the trail of the conquistadores towards the Santa Fe sun

Say goodbye to those Mexican women down at The H&H Car Wash Café

All their huevos rancheros and that red enchilada plate

Where a mountain lion walked in one day, so thirsty for water, they say
Em A D
But the cops took him down inside the car wash front gate

So it's, "Adios, my friends," we're leaving El Paso

All the Rio Grande's gone bone dry and all the stories have been told

We're hooking it up north now, up the Jornada del Muerto

Following the conquistadores to the Santa Fe sun

verse 2
A D
Remember that old cowboy song about Rosa's Cantina?
A D
Around the jukebox at Rosa's, we sang it loud and we sang it long
G F#m
Staring up at Mt. Cristo Rey where the cowboy rode down to his fate
Em A D
To die in the arms of Felina, man, that was a hell of a song
A D
So it's, "Adios, my friends," we're leaving El Paso
A D
All the Rio Grande's gone bone dry and all the stories have been told
G F#m
We're hooking it up north now, up the Jornada del Muerto
Em A D
On the trail of the conquistadores toward the Santa Fe sun
Em A D
Following the dry, old Rio Bravo towards the Santa Fe sun
