[Verse 1]
E                                                          B
He looked down into her brown eyes and said  Say a prayer for me

                                                          E
She threw her arms around him whispered God will keep us free

                                                            A
They could see the riders coming  He said This is my last fight

                          E                 B            E
If they take me back to Texas  They won't take me back alive
[Chorus]
E                                                      B
There were seven Spanish angels  At the altar of the sun

                                                         E
They were praying for the lovers   In the valley of the gun

                                                                             A
 When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared  There was thunder from the throne

                    E             B           E
And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home
[Verse 2]
E                                                                 B
She reached down and picked the gun up  That lay smoking in his hand

                                                               E
She said Father please forgive me  I can't make it without my man

                                                            A
And she knew the gun was empty  And she knew she could not win

                           E                  B            E
But her final prayer was answered  When the rifles fired again
[Chorus]
E                                                     B
There were seven Spanish angels  At the altar of the sun

                                                         E
They were praying for the lovers   In the valley of the gun

                                                                             A
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared  There was thunder from the throne

                    E             B           E
And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home
[Solo] A E E E B B B B E E E E A A E B E A E A E A [Chorus]

And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home
