[Intro]
Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am
Dm Am South Coast the wild coast is lonely F E7 F E You may win a card game at Jolon Am Dm Am But the lion still rules the Barranca Dm Em Am And a man there is always alone
[Verse]
Dm Am My name is Juan Hano de Castro F Em Am My father was a Spanish Grandee F Dm But I won my wife in a card game F Em Am To hell with those lords o'er the sea
[Verse]
Dm Am I picked up the ace, I had won her F Em Am My heart which was down at my feet F Dm Jumped up to my throat in a hurry F Em Am Like a warm summer's day she was sweet
[Chorus]
Dm Am South Coast the wild coast is lonely F E7 F E You may win a card game at Jolon Am Dm Am But the lion still rules the Barranca Dm Em Am And a man there is always alone
[Verse]
Dm Am Her arms had to tighten around me F E As we rode up the hill from the south Am Dm Am Not a word did I hear from her that day F Em Am Or a kiss from her pretty red mouth
[Verse]
Dm Am We came to my cabin at twilight F E And the stars twinkled out on the coast Am Dm Am She soon loved the valley, the orchard F Em Am But I knew that she loved me the most
[Chorus]
Dm Am South Coast the wild coast is lonely F E7 F E You may win a card game at Jolon Am Dm Am But the lion still rules the Barranca Dm Em Am And a man there is always alone
[Verse]
Dm Am Then I got hurt in a landslide F Em Am Crushed hip and twice broken bone F Dm She saddled our pony like lightning F Em Am Rode off in the night all alone
[Verse]
Dm Am But the lion screamed in the Barranca F Em Am And the Pony fell back on the slide F Dm My young wife lay dead in the moonlight F Em Am My heart died that night with my bride
[Chorus]
Dm Am South Coast the wild coast is lonely F E7 F E You may win a card game at Jolon Am Dm Am But the lion still rules the Barranca Dm Em Am And a man there is always alone
