G G7 C
Sun rise, this is the last day that I'll ever see
Cm G
Out in the courtyard they're ready for me
D G
But I go to my Lord with no fear
D G G
'Cause I did what I did for Maria
[Verse 2]
D G
As I rode into town with the sun going down
D G
All the windows were barred there was no-one around
D G
For they knew that I'd come with my hand on my gun
D G D G
And revenge in my heart for Maria, my dearest departed Maria
[Chorus]
D G
Take an eye for an eye and a life for a life
D G
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
D G
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
D G G
I did what I did for Maria
[Verse 3]
G G7 C
Laughter echoed across from the end of the street
Cm G
There was the man I was burning to meet
D G
And my mind was so calm and so clear
D G
As I took my revenge for Maria
[Verse 4]
D G
And he fell to the ground, raisin' dust all around
D G
But I knew he was dead long before he went down
D G
It was quick it, was clean, made it easy on him
D G
Which is more than he did for Maria
D G
When he did what he did to Maria
[Chorus]
D G
Take an eye for an eye and a life for a life
D G
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
D G
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
D G D G D G G
I did what I did for Maria
[Verse 5]
G G7 C
Sun rise, this is the last day that I'll ever see
Cm G
Out in the courtyard they're ready for me
D G
But I go to my Lord with no fear
D G
'Cause I did what I did for Maria
[Chorus]
D G
Take an eye for an eye and a life for a life
D G
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
D G
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
D G
I did what I did for Maria
[Chorus]
D G
Take an eye for an eye and a life for a life
D G
And somebody must die for the death of my wife
D G
Yes, I did what I did for Maria
D G
I did what I did for Maria
