Alamo
A#m                     F# G#
Heard all about your fandango
D#m                   F#        G#
Banged on my knees on your back door
G#   F# C#          C#
Only to wake you to blues on the way
D#m
Blues on the way
F#           G#
Blues on the way


[Verse 2]
A#m         G#
Embarcar
A#m                    F#  G#
Figures you'll see me as older
D#m                   F#       G#
Twenty-three hours till the border
G#    F#         C#          C#
Don't think I'll be going as fast as I came
D#m
Fast as I came
F#
Fast as I came


[Chorus 1]
D#m
Tears on my pillow
   F#
Of course they're not mine
D#m
Alter that altar
G#
Making a play
G#                  F#
Somebody invent the telephone line
          C#
I'll take mine
 G#    A#m
My chances

A#m   G#
Alamo
A#m                  F#   G#
Wish I could do what gold does
D#m                    F#      G#
Heard that the stars were in order
G#      F#   C#
Got yourself dealt a hand with
C#
Two queen of spades
    D#m
And blues on the way
F#           G#
Blues on the way


[Chorus 2]
D#m
Tears on my pillow
   F#
Of course they're not mine
D#m
Alter that altar
G#
Making a play
G#
Somebody just
G#                  F#
Somebody invent the telephone line
          C#   G#
I'll take my
A#m
Chances
