Seven Spanish Angels [With Willie Nelson] Songtext

A /A He looked/ down into her brown eyes, and said E7 "Say a prayer for me". She E7 Threw her arms around him, whispered E7 "God will keep us free". A They could hear the riders comin', He said D "This is my last fight...If they A Take me back to Texas, they won't E7 A Take me back a-live. ---------------------------------------- CHORUS A: A There were seven Spanish angels, at the E7 altar of the sun. They were prayin' for the lovers, in the A valley of the gun. When the /battle stopped and the smoke cleared, D there was thunder from the throne, A E7 And seven Spanish angels, took a-nother A angel home. ----------------------------------------- VERSE 2: A / She reached down and picked the gun up, E7 that lay smokin' in his hand. She said, "Father please forgive me; A I can't make it without my man." And she knew the gun was empty, And she knew she couldn't win, But her final prayer was answered When the rifles fired again. ---------------------------------------- CHORUS 2: (1/2 step higher): **REPEAT ONCE Bflat (x88766) There were seven Spanish angels, at the F7 (x8786x) altar of the sun.
