          A                        D 
Adios, my friend, 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 heading up north now, up the Jornada del Muerto 
                             Em    A                     D

verse 1 
                     A                             D 
Say goodbye to those Mexican women down at The H&H Car Wash Café 
                    A                             D 
All their huevos rancheros and that red enchilada plate 
                                G                       F#m 
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 

                    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 
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
