[Intro] E E E E A B7 E E E E [Verse]
E                      A
Stopped to rest in San Jacinto

B7                         E
  My horse shivered in the rain

                         A
Reflecting back on seven dead men

B7                              E
  My conscience never will come clean

                              A
The mission looked warm and inviting

B7                            E
  The padre poured a glass of wine

                             A
He said my sons sit down and rest here

B7                                  E
  Looks like your luck's run out of time
[Chorus]
A                          E
  He handed me the book of angels

A                               B7
  Was it heavens thunder that I heard

E                                 A
  Though I can't read the Spanish bible

B7                                E
  But I can feel the power of its words
[Solo] E E A A B7 B7 E E [Verse]
                        A
Always running from the gallows

B7                                E
  My soul's so dark it won't come clean

                             A
All my bad deeds come second nature

B7                            E
  My only moods are scared of me
[Chorus]
A                          E
  But as I scan the lovely language

A                     B7
  My sins do not go undisturbed

E                                  A
  Though I can't read the Spanish bible

B7                            E
  I can feel the power of its words
[Solo] E E A A B7 B7 E E

[Verse]

E                           A
  I saddled up and rode out early

B7                         E
  Before the rising of the sun

                          A
Thanked the padre for his kindness

B7                          E
  As I loaded bullets in my gun
[Chorus]
A                              E
  When I looked back I saw him praying

A                              B7
  The sky was full of soothing words

E                        A
  As he read the Spanish bible

B7                              E
  I could feel the power of its words

E                              A
  So I go and read the Spanish bible

B7                              E     A  E
But I can feel the power of its words
