Gene Clark – Del Gato (Guitar)

A                        Bm
My name is Del Gato born close to the border

     D                           A
from white blood and red blood I came

                      Bm
I travel the saddle I follow the cattle

D                               A
Far out on the range where they graze

       E                  D                   A
And I just ride in from a hard south western drive

   E
My lips parched and bloodied

   D                            A
My face torn by sand storms and pride

A                  Bm
Royalty riches and inner bred ditches   

        D                      A
Was the brew that I drank as a child

                          Bm
So rebellious a lover Don Juan as a my cover

     D                          A
They die cast my type called me wild  

A     E                   D                  A
And I just ride in from a hard southwestern drive

    E               D                   A
The hanging tree is waiting for me to arrive

A                        Bm
Structured political our children they ridiculed

     D                         A
They teach them of sins and to lie

                                    Bm
Their schools built by fools but by breaking the rules

       D                      A
Like a fox I am forced now to hide

       E                  D                   A
And I just ride in from a hard south western drive

   E
My lips parched and bloodied

   D                            A
My face torn by sand storms and pride

A                                  Bm 
Now the pepper tree spreads taking many mans heads            

        D                           A      
But the one they would want most is mine 

                           Bm
To the mission I go in San Juan and I kneel

      D                       A
And I pray for the love of my life

       E                  D                   A
And I just ride in from a hard south western drive

   E
My lips parched and bloodied

   D                            A
My face torn by sand storms and pride

A     E                   D                  A
And I just ride in from a hard southwestern drive

    E               D                   A
The hanging tree is waiting for me to arrive
