🎸 Verse 1:
E MajorE                             BB
He looked down into her brown eyes and said Say a prayer for me
                             E MajorE
She threw her arms around him whispered God will keep us free
                              A augmentedA
They could see the riders coming He said This is my last fight
             E MajorE         BB      E MajorE
If they take me back to Texas They won't take me back alive


🎸 Chorus:
E MajorE                           BB
There were seven Spanish angels At the altar of the sun
                             E MajorE
They were praying for the lovers  In the valley of the gun
                                       A augmentedA
 When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne
          E MajorE       BB      E MajorE
And seven Spanish angels Took another angel home

🎸 Verse 2:
E MajorE                                 BB
She reached down and picked the gun up That lay smoking in his hand
                                E MajorE
She said Father please forgive me I can't make it without my man
                              A augmentedA
And she knew the gun was empty And she knew she could not win
              E MajorE         BB      E MajorE
But her final prayer was answered When the rifles fired again

🎸 Chorus:

There were seven Spanish angels At the altar of the sun
                             E MajorE
They were praying for the lovers  In the valley of the gun
                                       A augmentedA
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared There was thunder from the throne
          E MajorE       BB      E MajorE
And seven Spanish angels Took another angel home
