Ballad Of Cable Hogue chords by Calexico

Em
Am


Couplets

Am				  G			   Am
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run

Am			   G
got myself a little goldmine to bank on

Dm 			     Am
one day my heart sank when I saw Madame in town

 Am    G    F			Am
I knew her love would be the death of mine

L'amour passé, l'amour obGcte.
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur?
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique.
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars.

Refrain

c			   G
Do me a Favor while I'm hanging here

c				 Am
Take this gold and go and hide

Am			   G	  Am
ne gigote pas chéri sur ta corde pendue

	Am  G	 F		Am
cn't worry I'll be free in no time.


Jouer un couplet sans chanter

Couplet 3

Am				 G			 Am
She promised me she would be there when I'd return

Am 				  G
she didn't say she'd have a army there as well

Dm						Am
she whispered, "J'taime Baby," as she fired that gun at me.

Am G F		  Am
mais je n'ai plus de temps


Refrain

  c				 G
I should've stayed way out yonder

	 c       		  Am
better off with the scorpi-ons and snakes

Am						G		  Am
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end

  Am	G F	 Am
Yes I'm a little late this time,

	  Am  G F		   Mim
cause her love would be the death of mine,

	  Am
mine, all mine
