Intro:
A augmentedA  E MajorE   A augmentedA

Verse:
A augmentedA             E MajorE        A augmentedA
In a dusty little Mexican town down on the border
          E MajorE            A augmentedA
Never expecting my heart to cross over the line
  D MajorD                         A augmentedA
He rode into the square like he lived as wild as his stallion
     E MajorE                  A augmentedA
And his warm dark eyes burned down down into mine

A augmentedA              E MajorE         A augmentedA
Somewhere under the stars a lonely guitar was playing
              E MajorE    A augmentedA
It was the closest I'd come to paradise
     D MajorD                   A augmentedA
And the world stood still for us there in the shadows
      E MajorE                 A augmentedA
Until he whispered to me  the words of goodbye

Chorus:
D MajorD                   A augmentedA
 On Diablo he circled the mission of life
   E MajorE                A augmentedA
Then rode like a bandit stealing the night
D MajorD                       A augmentedA
 Dawn was breaking and I ached to touch him again
               E MajorE             A augmentedA
But I knew that to have him I might as well saddle the wind

Verse:
A augmentedA                E MajorE        A augmentedA
The wind blows cold through my soul back home in Austin
             E MajorE          A augmentedA
Off in the distance somewhere a mission bell rings
D MajorD                       A augmentedA
Filling my mind with thoughts of that Mexican rider
  E MajorE                A augmentedA
Tonight I'll have him only in my dreams

Chorus:
D MajorD                   A augmentedA
 On Diablo he circled the mission of life
   E MajorE                A augmentedA
Then rode like a bandit stealing the night
D MajorD                       A augmentedA
 Dawn was breaking and I ached to touch him again
    E MajorE                        A augmentedA
But I knew that to have him I might as well saddle the wind
