Em Bm The owl of Zaragoza Am Is sitting by my window G B Daring me out Em Bm As I sit there by my piano Am I let spiders take my hands G B Daring the words to entwine Em Bm Why's there so much loving? Am Why’s there so much trouble? G B The rhetorical snake replies Em Bm7 It's just the song sung for the river Am So don't be scared, don’t be shy G B Don't even ask why

[Chorus]
C One morе for this life G One more for thе show D One more for the sky B Em And the fire down below C One more for the night G Where the purple lilacs grow D One more for the dead B Em One more for the road

[Verse]
Em Bm On one hand, is tattooed joy Am On one hand, is tattooed strife G B And I've been boxing half of my life Em Bm What's the difference, Duran?
What's the difference?
Am Between the No Mas G B And the championship high?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Em Am Am So high, I look down Am D Em The ground is like speckles Em Am Am The owl and my mind Am D Em Em Am Am Have taken to the air-i-ai-aiaiair Am D Em The witching time arrives Em Am Am Band by my side Am D Em We step into the lights
[Chorus]
C One morе for this life G One more for thе show D One more for the sky B Em And the fire down below C One more for the night G Where the purple lilacs grow D One more for the dead B Em One more for the road

[calm Verse]
Em G In my dream the was a mechanical bull C I watched it on a screen Em And it was blocking me from entering my life Am G In the next scene, there was a rain of arrows F#m And the matador and the bull B Both got drenched in those fine diagonal lines Em I was director, I was matador G And the bull was my name C When I woke, I was drenched Em From the storm where I came Am G As the sweat on my body got cold F#m I started shivering and shivering B And shivering and shivering Em Em Am Am Am D And I-ia-ia-ia-ia Em I know where that one goes Em Am Am I know where that one flies Am D Em And I'II follow it tonight
[Chorus]
C One morе for this life G One more for thе show D One more for the sky B Em And the fire down below C One more for the night G Where the purple lilacs grow D One more for the dead B Em One more for the road C One more for the eyes G Of the spirits in this room D One more for the future B Em That's coming for us soon C One more for the fight G And the never-ending blows D One more for your love B Em One more for the road
